mission

The mission of the Center for Equity in Child and Youth Health and Wellbeing is to advance the health and wellbeing of infants, children, adolescents, young adults, and their families, particularly those in underserved, under-resourced, and systematically disadvantaged communities locally and globally. The Center seeks to catalyze innovative ideas, strategies, and collaborations in research, practice, policy, and educational scholarship that support the next generation of scholars, clinicians and policy makers. The Center advances the values and principles of the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing and its institutional and community partners and our commitment to an equitable and evidence-based future for children, youth, and their families.
