Adolescent/Children’s Health |
The risks of accidents, suicide, HIV and substance use are the most pressing child and adolescent health issues. Long-term disability and chronic illness for adults can often be curtailed by improving access to prevention and treatment for youth. We’ve helped clients make change in teen health by:
- Creating school-based screening programs
- Drafting principles for state and federal children’s health legislation
- Developing primers and white papers on adolescent healthcare for policymakers
- Establishing and managing advocacy coalitions
- Establishing approaches to pediatric medicines for a global healthcare company
- Addressing concerns about over-prescribing of medicines and off-label medicine use
