Lowe, Elaine, Ed.
This report compiles the proceedings from the third national forum of the Canadian Child Care Federation, held in November 2001, which provided an opportunity for early childhood educators, practitioners, and researchers to share knowledge, learn from each other, and network with colleagues. The agenda included 4 keynote speeches, 30 workshops on current Canadian early childhood research, and a national panel of the directors of the Centres of Excellence for Children's Well-Being. The topics for the keynote addresses are: working together for children and youth, enabling conditions for healthy child development, society and developmental health, and the sacredness of life. Workshop topics include child abuse and neglect, the impact of low income/poverty on child development, public policy related to children, government-voluntary sector collaboration, prenatal influences, mental health services, how research is linked to practice in various locations in Canada, middle childhood and adolescence, nutrition issues, youth engagement, child health, and the first year goals and activities of the Centres of Excellence for Children's Well-Being related to early child development, child- and youth-centered prairie communities, child welfare, youth engagement, and children and adolescents with special needs.
