As pediatric health care professionals, we need to screen and identify children at risk for food insecurity connect families to needed community resources and advocate for policies that support access to adequate and healthy food. Children who live in households with food insecurity are likely to be sick more often, recover from illness more slowly, and be hospitalized more frequently. At the event, Governor Cooper also discussed the Building Bright Futures (BBF) early childhood education pre-apprenticeship-to-apprenticeship program. The Bright Futures/American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Recommendations for Preventive Pediatric Health Care, also known as the 'Periodicity Schedule,' is a schedule of screenings and assessments recommended at each well-child visit from infancy through adolescence. Stabilization grants will expire in December 2023. Food insecurity is a critical child health issue that impacts millions of infants, children, youth, and families in all communities across the U.S. As of April 18, 2023, NCDHHS has distributed a total of 875 million to more than 4,400 child care centers across the state.
