It’s #ChildrensVision&LearningMonth 👓 Today we're highlighting an important issue: over half of children nationwide have not yet visited an eye doctor for a vision examination. Without proper examinations, undiagnosed eye problems can hinder a child's education, social interactions, and day to day activities. Vision checks and other screenings conducted during Well Visits ensure kids are prepared to succeed in school. Use the Well Visit Planner to make the most of these encounters: https://ow.ly/pC2j50T9pQr

Professor of public health advancing a new science of thriving to promote child, family and community flourishing
Today we celebrate the ten-year anniversary of the #WeAretheMedicine campaign to translate the science of healthy development and flourishing into policy and practice so all children thrive! Ten years ago today, the CAHMI partnered with AcademyHealth, ACEs Connection (now PACEs Connection), The California Endowment and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to engage a large group of national family, community, school, research and policy leaders to launch a movement --a movement to develop and advance a new #PrioritizingPossibilities national agenda to prevent and address the impacts of childhood trauma by proactively promoting the social and relational roots of well-being needed to foster child, family and community resilience and flourishing. We began with a full day planning meeting with presentations by the spark leading to a new ACEs science Vincent Felitti, MD as well as Robert Sege, who has led to advance Health Outcomes of Positive Experiences (#HOPE). We have now completed a decade of innovation in measurement (child flourishing, family resilience and connection, positive childhood experiences, ACEs, whole child health and risk indices), new research and policy advocacy as well as systems of care frameworks (#EngagementInAction), family engaged tools to optimize the quality of well child visits (#WellVisitPlanner) and more. See this video that emerged from the summit, featuring then AAP President sandra hassink, AcademyHealth President Lisa Simpson, CareOregon CEO David Ford, our then JHU Department Chair and child and youth resilience pioneer Robert Blum, youth justice and positive health pioneer James Garbarino and many others who gathered to jump start action. https://lnkd.in/gADHzid4 The CAHMI continues to seek to partner with you in following the #WeAreTheMedicine and #PrioritizingPossibilities and #PaymentForProgress agendas to achieve #PositiveHealthEquity for all children, youth and families! Doing so requires building relational systems of care anchored in family and community engagement, which we share more about in the new Engagement In Action Framework (#EnAct!) for statewide integrated early childhood health systems! Let's keep going together! Well-being and healing is indeed within and between us!

It's #ChildMentalHealthAwarenessDay! Join CAHMI in celebrating the possibilities for promoting positive mental health and flourishing of children by promoting family, school, and community positive childhood experiences! Here are key insights and resources to help us promote children’s flourishing: 1. Whole Child Approaches Are Essential: The prevalence of child mental health conditions can vary four-fold depending on their social and relational contexts. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/dpe3MEfH 2. Prioritize Promoting Positive Health: Despite facing mental health challenges and relational health risks like adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), children can flourish! Promoting family resilience and parent-child connections and other positive childhood experiences is the key. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eQ5FRhrK 3. Reducing Risks Is Not the Same as Promoting Flourishing: Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) focus on fostering safe and nurturing relationships, which are crucial especially during challenging times. Without PCEs, most children do not flourish, regardless of the absence of Adverse Childhood Experiences. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/dP4qi_t #MentalHealthAwareness #PACEs #ChildFlourishing

Dr. Christina Bethell collaborates with HOPE and others to bridge gaps in PCEs research and data, supporting efforts to transform early childhood services towards a positive health approach. Access the press release below.
A new 4-state study published in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report finds that more than half of adults reported at least 6 out of 7 positive childhood experiences (PCEs), while less than 2 of 10 adults reported 2 or less PCEs. However, the number of PCEs differed when accounting for demographic and socioeconomic factors. People in racial and ethnic minority groups, those who identify as gay, lesbian, or bisexual, and those earning less income had fewer PCEs. Research shows that PCEs promotes overall adult health and well-being including improved mental and physical health, higher educational achievement, and higher income. PCEs helps lessen the lifelong effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and allow the brain to heal from past trauma. Further understanding PCEs may help improve health equity.

Child welfare professionals need tools to assess child development and social/relational health risks, and promote child-family relational health. The EnAct! Framework's Well Visit Planner is an integrated assessment platform to engage families, understand their needs, and collaborate effectively with partners in the early childhood health system. Users can tailor content by incorporating relevant resources and assessments like the PEARLS or SEEK, along with measures to gauge family resilience and child flourishing.
