Strategies to improve these indicators

Why Is This Important?

Infant health influences health and development throughout childhood and into adulthood. For example, a baby born of low birth weight may be cognitively, behaviorally and physically delayed resulting in lower educational attainment and long term adverse health effects including diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.
