Informing the Future of Safer Communities and Healthy Child Development: Proceedings from a Cradle to Community Convening

Date Published:  December 2017

Summary

The 2016 Cradle to Community convening was the first opportunity to bring together two national networks: Prevention Institute’s UNITY City Network and the Center for the Study of Social Policy’s Early Childhood Learning and Innovation Network for Communities (EC-LINC). These proceedings synthesize key themes and directions for collaborative learning and action that emerged. In addition, the proceedings highlight next steps for local work and the national Cradle to Community project, and more broadly inform future efforts to promote safer communities and healthy child development.
