This report outlines six key policy areas which, when taken in a coordinated and coherent way, increase the chances of childhood well-being and address risk factors of vulnerability. These policy areas aim to empower vulnerable families and improve parenting skills, boost children's emotional and social skills, make child protection services more child-centred and accessible and improve after-care services, increase children's educational success and improving early education quality, improve children's health including pre-natal care and nutrition, and reduce children's poverty and material deprivation and removing barriers for parental employment. First, the report looks into the individual, family and environmental factors that contribute to child vulnerability and the special considerations for children in vulnerable countries.

"Healthy mental, emotional, and behavioral (MEB) development is a critical foundation for a productive adulthood. Much is known about strategies to support families and communities in strengthening the MEB development of children and youth, by promoting healthy development and also by preventing and mitigating disorder, so that young people reach adulthood ready to thrive and contribute to society. Over the last decade, a growing body of research has significantly strengthened understanding of healthy MEB development and the factors that influence it, as well as how it can be fostered. Yet, the United States has not taken full advantage of this growing knowledge base. Ten years later, the nation still is not effectively mitigating risks for poor MEB health outcomes; these risks remain prevalent, and available data show no significant reductions in their prevalence. Fostering Healthy Mental, Emotional, and Behavioral Development in Children and Youth: A National Agenda examines the gap between current research and achievable national goals for the next ten years. This report identifies the complexities of childhood influences and highlights the need for a tailored approach when implementing new policies and practices. This report provides a framework for a cohesive, multidisciplinary national approach to improving MEB health"--Publisher's description
