Abstract / Description
Practitioners in maternal and child health (MCH) make it a priority to solve complex public health problems facing women, children, adolescents, and their families across the life course. The field of MCH has made significant advances in the past century, including the expansion of family planning methods and services, the eradication of once-common deadly diseases such as polio, and innovations in maternal and child health care that have significantly reduced the rates of maternal and infant deaths.
