Book Synopsis An Overview of State Policies Affecting Adolescent Pregnancy and Parenting by : Jeffrey J. Koshel
Download or read book An Overview of State Policies Affecting Adolescent Pregnancy and Parenting written by Jeffrey J. Koshel and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides a brief overview of state policies and programs to address the problems of adolescent pregnancy and parenting. Section 1, a brief introduction, is followed by a section which examines a broad set of state policies and programs affecting at-risk youth, including pregnant teenagers and teenage parents. The state-by-state review provided in this section covers the following specific areas: (1) state planning and coordination, including task forces, individual agency initiatives, and coordinated programs and policies; (2) health care programs and policies, including family planning services, support for school-based clinics, and Medicaid coverage of low income pregnant women; (3) educational programs and policies, including preschool child development, middle grades improvement, efforts to reduce school failure among older youth, and family life education; and (4) employment and training initiatives. The final section presents conclusions and provides a table summarizing the major types of organizational and programmatic responses of states for addressing the issues of teenage pregnancy and parenting. It is concluded that the data shows that many states have taken significant steps toward improving their health, education, and employment/training programs to more effectively meet the needs of high-risk children and youth, but that states still have a long way to go in establishing universal primary prevention programs. Appendices include information about existing data sources on the subject of adolescent pregnancy and parenting and a list of state contacts on teenage pregnancy and parenting. (NB)

The panel's report is presented in chapters addressing the following topics: trends in adolescent sexuality and fertility, society and changing roles of adolescents, determinants of sexual behavior, effects of adolescent childbearing, interventions, and priorities for data collection, research, policies, and programs. An accompanying volume contains the working papers on which the report was based.

Book Synopsis Parenting Matters by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Download or read book Parenting Matters written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.
