American Birthright (scheduled
for release in Spring 2013) grows out of our work with UNNATURAL
CAUSES: Is Inequality Making Us Sick?.
It's often said a society can be
measured by how well it attends to its children. So how is it that children in
the U.S. have worse outcomes on most measures of health, education and
well-being than other rich nations?
Join the American Birthright Public
Engagement Campaign to reframe the debate about what we as a society
can - and should - do so every infant in America can grow up in the rich and
caring environments children need to thrive.
Use the forthcoming American Birthright
documentary and multimedia tools to support your organization's work and spark
exploration, discussion and action because a nurturing child ecology is not
only the right of every infant, it's the cornerstone for a healthier, stronger
and more equitable future for our nation.
