According to the Center for American Progress, “Inequities in socioeconomic and daily living conditions generate adverse outcomes that persist throughout the lifespan, but the birth through age 6 period can serve as a unique opportunity for intervention; in these years, children’s susceptibility to influential early experiences can be harnessed to support long-term wellbeing.”
SPFC invites you to a community dialogue hosted in partnership with Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, focusing on how addressing social determinants of health, including healthcare, food security, and policy, can support the positive development of our children and promote health equity in our community.
