Maternal, Infant, and Child Health

Our Goal: Optimize the health and well-being of women, infants, children and families, with a focus on disparate populations.

The health and well-being of mothers, infants, and children are important indicators of community and state health, and are critical for our nation’s future health, well-being, and prosperity. Areas of focus since the Healthy Connecticut 2020 initiative include the following:

  • Reproductive and sexual health
  • Preconception and pregnancy care
  • Birth outcomes
  • Infant and child nutrition
  • Child health and well-being
