The document discusses the impact of absentee fathers on children's well-being. It notes that in 2013, 71.5% of black children in the US were born to unmarried women. Research shows that children fare best in stable family environments with consistent parenting. Family disruption, such as multiple school or job changes for parents, can compromise a child's well-being by causing stress and instability. A 1965 US labor report found that breaking down the family structure, as occurred under slavery, disrupts the transmission of appropriate nurturing behavior from parents to children.
1) The study examines differences in education, health, and labor outcomes between orphans and non-orphans living in the same households in South Africa, where HIV/AIDS has caused high mortality and many orphaned children.
2) The study finds no statistically significant differences between orphans and non-orphans in the same households across most education, health, and labor outcomes, with a few exceptions. Paternal orphans are more likely to be behind in school.
3) Recent mobility is found to have a positive effect on schooling outcomes, while living with surviving parents leads to better outcomes versus other arrangements like grandparents.
The document discusses several key socioeconomic factors that influence child mortality rates, including health, nutrition, poverty, gender, and education. Poverty is associated with higher risks of issues like low birth weight, chronic diseases, obesity, injuries, and lack of school readiness. Maternal health, literacy, breastfeeding practices, and access to healthcare services are also important determinants of child mortality. Addressing socioeconomic inequalities through interventions like nutrition programs, healthcare access, and women's empowerment can help reduce under-five mortality rates in developing nations.
Cynthia Lewis proposes a research project to study contraceptive health in Belize. She notes that currently, data only accounts for married women's contraceptive use and does not include unmarried women. Her research aims to conduct surveys of over 1,000 women in Dangriga, Belize to gather a more comprehensive data set on contraceptive use and needs across different demographics. With this data, she hopes to increase awareness of reproductive health needs and access to services like birth control and prenatal care in rural areas of Belize. If funded, the project has the potential to improve contraceptive education and outreach programs in the country.
This document summarizes a study on food insecurity among women in Saskatchewan. It provides background information on definitions of food security and insecurity. Food insecurity can be experienced at the individual, household, community and cultural levels. It then outlines the study's methods of interviewing women in rural, remote and urban areas of Saskatchewan. Key findings included the stigma of food insecurity, its physical and mental health impacts, and challenges with access, affordability and approaches to nutritious food. The conclusion discusses implications for public policy around income support and food security.
This study examined factors that affect life expectancy in the United States. The researchers hypothesized that life expectancy would be negatively associated with teenage birth rates and positively associated with educational attainment. Using data from 50 states and Washington D.C. on variables like teenage birth rates, income, and education levels, they found through correlation and regression analyses that life expectancy increases with education and decreases with teenage births, supporting their hypotheses. Higher education was also found to predict lower fertility rates.
The document discusses factors that contribute to high child mortality rates in Uganda, specifically addressing malnutrition and lack of access to healthcare. It notes that 1 in 13 babies in Uganda do not survive their first year, and 1 in 7 do not live to see their 5th birthday. Key factors discussed include severe acute malnutrition, lack of maternal education, long distances to health clinics, and poverty. The document advocates for improved government health programs and policies to address this issue.

Future of Integrated Community Case Management PerryCORE Group
This document outlines Henry Perry's reflections on recent evaluations showing no mortality impact from integrated Community Case Management (iCCM) programs in three countries. Perry argues that iCCM should continue but that more work is needed to determine the conditions required to achieve mortality impact at scale. This includes ensuring community health workers are well-trained, supervised, supplied and that quality of care is good. Perry proposes a dual-cadre community health system with both full-time and volunteer community health workers in order to improve access and coverage of treatment for sick children.
Nutrition sensitive sp programs and nutrition alderman may 2014essp2
This document discusses how nutrition-sensitive social protection programs can help accelerate progress in improving maternal and child nutrition. It defines nutrition-sensitive interventions as programs that address the underlying determinants of nutrition by incorporating specific nutrition goals and actions. While targeted household transfers have shown modest impacts on nutrition, the document argues they could be enhanced by prioritizing nutritionally vulnerable groups, improving program design, and using social protection programs as a platform to deliver nutrition-specific interventions.
The document discusses maternal health and outcomes in Burkina Faso. It finds that the maternal mortality ratio in Burkina Faso is 400 deaths per 100,000 live births, which is higher than the global average but has declined 49% since 1990. Pregnancy-related crises can have long-term health, social, and economic impacts on women and their families due to costs of care, lost productivity, and risk of impoverishment. Investing in access to emergency obstetric care and family planning can help reduce maternal mortality and its adverse effects in Burkina Faso.
Malnutrition affects many women and children in Latin America, particularly in rural areas with limited access to nutritious foods and clean water. Up to 55% of infant deaths in Latin America are due to preventable causes like diarrhea and respiratory infections. A proposed prevention plan includes distributing prenatal vitamins and breastfeeding education materials to mothers, as well as establishing areas for public breastfeeding and access to hospital-grade breast pumps. Exclusive breastfeeding has been shown to reduce risks of childhood obesity, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease.

This document discusses children's illnesses around the world. It focuses on three topics: terminally ill diseases, obesity in children, and illnesses connected to malnutrition. Terminally ill diseases cannot be cured and will lead to death, though palliative care can manage symptoms. Obesity is caused by genetic and environmental factors like diet, inactivity, and media use, and increases risks of health issues. Malnutrition in children is most prevalent and damaging, affecting growth and development. The document aims to educate about these illnesses and their impacts on children and families.
The document discusses several obstacles that children face, including hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition. Some key points made include:
- 15.8 million American children lived in food-insecure households in 2012.
- Food insecurity threatens children's physical and mental development.
- Malnutrition is linked to nearly half of all childhood deaths globally.
- Charitable organizations like UNICEF and Feeding America are working to address these issues and improve nutrition assistance for children worldwide.
15.8 million American children lived in food-insecure households in 2012, with 20% or more of children in 37 states and DC facing food insecurity. Food insecurity threatens children's nutrition, health, academic achievement and economic prospects. Additionally, 3.9 million American households with children face limited or uncertain access to adequate nutrition. Globally, malnutrition contributes to nearly half of all childhood deaths, and 66 million primary school-aged children in developing nations attend class hungry. Various organizations work to address child hunger through food assistance, nutrition programs, and economic interventions.
Oral health in saskatchewan present and future from the perspective of the ...saskohc
This document discusses oral health in Saskatchewan from the perspective of the University of Saskatchewan College of Dentistry. It notes that oral health is integral to overall well-being and quality of life. Currently, oral health programming is underdeveloped and underfunded. The College of Dentistry aims to be the provincial resource for dental public health and community engagement. Its preferred future envisions expanded education, clinical, and outreach programs to improve oral health across Saskatchewan by better coordinating oral health professionals.
8 coast and jungle peruvian malnutritionJuan R Farro
Pedro Ruiz is taking a medical English course taught by Professor Rosa Gonzáles Llontop. The document discusses malnutrition, including its causes such as poverty and lack of access to food or healthcare, consequences like fatigue and increased risk of infection, and ways to prevent it like breastfeeding exclusively for the first 6 months and eating a balanced diet with foods from various groups. Chronic malnutrition in Peru has decreased in recent years but remains a problem, especially in rural areas and the jungle regions.
This document discusses a family-centered approach to comprehensive HIV/AIDS care and support. It argues that HIV is a family disease, so targeting entire families for prevention, care, treatment and support services is more effective than focusing on individual members. A family-centered approach reduces missed opportunities for early care, ensures appropriate care for all family members, reduces infection risks, and encourages treatment adherence through family support. However, implementing this approach faces challenges like stigma, unknown HIV statuses, and a lack of coordinated community programming.
Over 12 million people in East Africa have no access to food or water due to a drought that has lasted since 1951. Mothers must carry babies for miles to find sustenance. Although early warning systems predicted the food crisis a month in advance, the efforts of Johanne Burg to stop it were unsuccessful. The ongoing food crisis is affecting Somalia, Kenya, Haiti, and Ethiopia, with food prices rising 50-100% in Haiti and violence erupting elsewhere as people struggle to obtain food.
Niuchangchih (Antrodia camphorata) and its potential in treating liver diseasesAffiliate marketing
This review article discusses the medicinal mushroom Niuchangchih (Antrodia camphorata), which has traditionally been used in Taiwan to treat liver diseases. The article summarizes that Niuchangchih contains various compounds like polysaccharides, triterpenoids, and steroids. Recent research shows that Niuchangchih has hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer effects. Specifically, Niuchangchih can prevent liver injury from ethanol, CCl4, and cytokines, inhibit hepatitis B virus replication, ameliorate fatty liver and liver fibrosis, and inhibit liver cancer cells. The mechanisms of these effects are also discussed.
Rethinking Retail: Pop Ups, Food Trucks and Other Trends from Detroitashleymariea
Traditional retail is changing with the rise of pop-up shops, food trucks, and other temporary retail concepts. Pop-ups allow retailers flexibility with short-term, lower-cost leases to generate sales and attract customers. The document recommends that real estate professionals partner with local organizations to activate vacant storefronts through temporary pop-ups. It also provides tips for entrepreneurs on maintaining social media presence and collaborating with other pop-ups to drive traffic. Resources like Revolve Detroit help simplify the pop-up process through tools and licensing agreements.

This article relies on Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences. Gardner stated that intelligence is not a singular phenomenon but rather a collection of seven distinct intelligences within every individual: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily kinaesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal and musical (Gardner, 1983). Besides, Visual/Auditory/Kinaesthetic model for learning preferences complements the understanding of Garner’s theory. NLP presuppositions are found along this work, as well.
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire about watching habits and interests in documentaries. It shows that the primary audience is 15-17 year olds, mostly female, who watch documentaries once a week on Channel 4. They prefer male voiceovers and genres like indie music. Most have regrets related to school and would be interested in a documentary about regrets, though most would not feel comfortable speaking about their own regrets. The results help inform planning for a documentary about regrets by identifying the target audience and topics of interest.
Rex Michael Knight reminisces about a recent pilgrimage he took with his mother and 25 others to Jordan, Israel, and Egypt. He describes some of the meaningful sites they visited, including Mount Nebo, Petra, the pyramids in Egypt, and many important locations in Israel. However, he says the pilgrimage was about more than just visiting physical places - it was a journey of personal growth and discovery where the group developed new friendships and strengthened old ones. Knight reflects on how the trip allowed them all to take a break from life's busyness and listen to their hearts.

A Framework for Infrastructure Investment in the 21st Century - MI Infrastruc...OHM Advisors
On June 4, 2015, Greg Kacvinsky, principal at OHM Advisors, presented at the Michigan Infrastructure Conference. This presentation focused on the changing landscape for infrastructure funding.
Over the last 30 years, communities have witnessed a divergence in the need for infrastructure management and available revenues. An alarming percentage of our infrastructure is reaching the end of its useful life.
Downward pressure on tax revenues, combined with utility revenues that do not keep up with inflation, have resulted in the continued degradation of public safety and environmental health.

The document discusses the ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) Report for Michigan. It defines ALICE as households with income above the federal poverty level but below the basic cost of living. Key points:
- 40% of Michigan households fall below the ALICE threshold when considering costs of housing, childcare, food, transportation, healthcare and taxes.
- Many jobs in Michigan pay less than $20/hour, below the estimated hourly wage needed to afford a basic household budget.
- Meeting basic needs is a struggle for ALICE households and saving for emergencies is almost impossible on their income level.
- A collaborative effort is needed between communities, government, businesses and

The Grocery Manufacturers Association and Food Marketing Institute commissioned report ,The GMA and FMI have launched a three-year industry-wide effort focused on addressing food waste, in particular from the food manufacturer to pre-consumer. The initiative aims to decrease the amount of food sent to landfills and increase the amount that is available for higher value diversion elsewhere, including to food banks. The companies and organizations involved in this effort have been undertaking an assessment
that will include a comprehensive survey of the sources of food waste. The initiative is also focusing on identifying public policies that could expand the diversion of food from landfills (whether to food banks or other beneficial uses) and new technologies and industry practices that support its goals.

Designing Community Health Services Based on the Community's Concept of Healt...JSI
This study aimed to provide guidance on programmatic efforts to strengthen counseling for infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices, prevention of malnutrition, and referral and treatment of malnourished children in the context of integrated Community Case Management (iCMM) in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
It was found that understanding the health needs from the point of view of the community, both in terms of conceptualizing health problems and designing community-level services, is critical to addressing families' needs and ensuring utilization of services when integrating preventative and curative components of nutrition and child health services. These findings contributed to developing understandings of the interface between communities and health systems, and how the latter can learn from the former.

Holy Cross AIDS Hospice was established in 2000 by Sr. Priscilla Dlamini to provide care and support for the sick and dying. It has since expanded to serve over 5 tribal authorities through various programs. These include home-based care, support for orphaned children, an in-patient unit offering palliative care, income generation projects, youth programs, and day care centers for children. Over the years, Holy Cross AIDS Hospice has played a key role in the community by creating jobs and bringing important services, like housing and feeding centers, to rural areas in need.
The document summarizes malnutrition issues among village children in Tulesar, Jodhpur, India. It notes that underweight births, undernourished children, and poor sanitation have led to retarded growth and increased susceptibility to diseases. Around 10% of village children are underweight, contributing to 22% of the country's disease burden. To address this, students educated villagers about balanced diets and hygiene through posters, pamphlets, and community outreach. They worked with local health centers to raise awareness. Villagers learned how to cook nutritious meals affordably. As a result, villagers better understand issues like breastfeeding and the importance of checkups. They now feed their children more nutritious
International professional psychology of serviceSusan Hawes
Western psychologists are called to provide services to address the needs of disadvantaged children in developing countries. Key needs include improving children's health, nutrition, education and development. Successful interventions integrate these areas, involve parents and communities, provide age-appropriate learning activities, and give staff systematic training.

Seruds started its first child welfare program in 2003 with 10 children living in slums. Today we support 80 children, between the age of 1 year to 6 years, from slums and villages around Kurnool district in three creche or day care centers. These children come from poor families where both parents work as construction or farm laborers. During work day, they are unable to take care of their children. Thanks to Seruds daycare centers, they are able to leave their kids in a safe environment, from morning till evening

This document summarizes a research article about the challenges faced by HIV-positive mothers in exclusively breastfeeding their infants for six months in sub-Saharan Africa. Some key points:
- Exclusive breastfeeding for six months is recommended to reduce HIV transmission risk, but formula feeding poses challenges in poor areas with limited access to clean water and healthcare.
- Mothers face socio-cultural barriers to adhering to recommendations, such as stigma, partner disapproval, and pressure to introduce other foods and water earlier. Health workers also lack training to adequately counsel and support mothers' choices.
- Access to antiretroviral treatment is limited, and high maternal viral loads increase infection risk, despite recommendations for

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
