| Abstract | As part of the ongoing efforts in the state of Alaska to improve the health and well-being of the state's young children, the Alaska Departments of Education and Early Development and Health and Social Services are collaborating to develop a plan to address the critical outcomes and strategies that will support and improve the lives of Alaska's children and families. This report identifies many of the challenges facing Alaskan children and their families and identifies outcomes, beginning strategies, and indicators to help measure progress. Following an introduction, the report is presented in five sections. Section 1, "Assuring Maternal and Child Health," focuses on improving birth outcomes and the newborn's earliest environment, ensuring that children maintain physical and mental health, and protecting children from harm and injury. Section 2, "Enhancing Early Care and Education," delineates markers of high-quality programs. Section 3, "Supporting Healthy Stable Families," describes family responsibilities and delineates characteristics of resilient children. Section 4, "Developing Supportive Neighborhoods and Communities," describes characteristics of a healthy community. Section 5, "Establishing Support Systems," notes the importance of collaboration at the state and local level and details state responsibilities. In each section, positive outcomes are identified, suggested strategies are delineated, and possible indicators to measure progress and gauge success in achieving outcomes are listed. In addition, each section provides questions to guide community or agency/business self-evaluation regarding possible contributions to the identified outcomes. The report concludes with the charge that Alaskan citizens, communities, and organizations identify at least one action they can take that will make a difference for children. (KB) |
