Children´s health encompasses both physical and mental aspects of a child´s life. Building Oregon´s capacity for healthy, thriving children involves coordination and an integrated approach among direct health care services, community services, quality childcare, educational services and parents. 1 Ensuring the health and well-being of children and adolescents significantly contributes to success in all other endeavors, and will improve school readiness and achievement in the long run.
