The period from pregnancy through age 3 is the time of greatest growth and opportunity in a child’s life. This is reflected in several AAP initiatives, including the Policy Statement “Advocacy for Improving Nutrition in the First 1,000 Days to Support Childhood Development and Adult Health”, and the Bright Futures Examples for Promoting Early Brain and Child Development. Further, state legislatures and Medicaid agencies are also developing strategies targeted at the First 1,000 days for system and policy changes. Simultaneously, payers, health systems, and communities work to develop population-based strategies that improve outcomes continues.
It is time to capitalize on this movement and propel it forward to ensure all children are developmentally on-track and healthy from birth to age 3. The purpose of this action-oriented Special Interest Group is to unite pediatricians to develop, implement, evaluate, and collaborate around research approaches, systems changes, and policies that strengthen a child’s First 1,000 Days.
Informed by quarterly SIG meetings, the content theme for this year’s Maternal Child Health SIG will focus on Data Sharing and Breaking Down Silos. We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Michael Warren, Associate Administrator of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau, as keynote speaker. As reflected in the agenda, the SIG is committed to engage junior faculty and trainees, facilitating new collaborations that provide for immediate social needs and strive to address upstream social determinants through policy and legislative action. We anticipate that initiatives would encompass biopsychosocial elements and social ecological models.
