Intersections of Children's Health, Education, and Welfare Reviews

An important and timely analysis of how the trinity of health, education, and welfare is essential for every child's growth and development in today's world. The authors explore the disconnect in our policy-making and provide well-supported arguments for alternative community-based models that will improve the quality of life of our children and society at large. - Mary Riggs Cohen, PhD, author of Social Literacy

This book offers a compelling case that shows the generational interconnected effects of health, education, and income, and it provides guidelines for improving the well-being of children on all three fronts. - Edwin M. Bridges, Professor Emeritus, Stanford University
