Disruption in access to child health care comes with a cost. Certainly important from health policy perspective and the importance in maintaining community health care for young children and other priority populations. @WoolfendenSusan

Children’s development is a product of their environment. The first 1000 days are crucial for infancy and the longer term. This must be understood better to prevent a catastrophe. #COVID19 @WoolfendenSusan @sharon_goldfeld @DrJinRussell @AlisonLeversha

Our new Research Insight shows that lots of families are experiencing financial stress, especially those with young kids. This matters because the early years are a critical period where we lay the foundations for health and opportunity across the lifespan.
