What Issue is a Top Priority for Children’s Health?
The Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs recently polled its readership, asking “What is a top child health priority in your state?”
The top response, perhaps not surprisingly, was obesity/overweight, which was identified by 24% of the nearly 600 respondents. The second most popular response was dental care, followed by access to care, health insurance coverage, unintentional injuries, and several others. See the full list of responses>>
This was a national survey, so we thought we’d ask our readers the same question: What is a top child health priority in California?
On kidsdata.org, some of our most visited topics are homelessness, reading proficiency, child abuse, asthma, autism, and teen sexual health. While visits to an indicator don’t necessarily align with concern, we’re curious to hear what you think of that list – and what you might add. Take our unofficial, unscientific poll below and let us know a top child health priority in California:
