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
