Margaret Kuklinksi to speak on Opportunities for Transformation Through Scalable Solutions at Webinar on Federal Research Investments in Whole Child Health and Wellbeing

The webinar takes place on Wednesday, June 24 from 10:00 – 5:00 EST

Children across the U.S. are facing serious challenges to their healthy development. The good news? Decades of research have shown us what works. Now it's time to talk about how to put it into practice — at scale, in communities, through smart federal investment.

This event brings together National Institutes of Health (NIH) leadership and leading child health experts to explore how a whole-child approach to health and well-being can help every child flourish.

Presented by the Decade of the Child Committee, with sponsors Nova Institute for Health, the National Prevention Science Coalition to Improve Lives, the Edna Bennett Pierce Prevention Research Center at Penn State, and UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health.

Federal Research in Whole Child Health and Wellbeing Alarming trends show U.S. children face growing health, academic, and social challenges, threatening future prosperity. This full-day webinar highlights evidence-based strategies and research to advance whole-child health, strengthen families and systems, and improve outcomes nationwide.
