Advisory Committee Meeting

Yesterday's meeting with the Advisory Committee included some excellent discussion.  The group talked about healthy child development as a determinant of health.  They were asked the question:  What helps support healthy child development?  At each Advisory Committee meeting, we will have a discussion about a determinant of health.  We thought we could discuss them all over two meetings but given the level of discussion, it will be spread over more meetings. 

Yesterday, was also an opportunity to provide a summary of some of the discussion heard from key informants and results of the telephone survey.  Committee members found the results to be "surprising" and "complex."  At our next meeting in June, most of the primary research will be done so we should have a comprehensive discussion about what people are saying in the area about the well being of their communities.
