Abstract
Iowa’s 1st Five Healthy Mental Development Initiative is a public private partnership between the Iowa Department of Public Health and primary care providers in 88 Iowa counties. 1st Five Healthy Mental Development Initiative began in 2007. By partnering with primary care providers and providing training and assistance, 1st Five supports the healthy cognitive, social, and emotional development of Iowa children from birth through five years. Experts agree that early detection of developmental delays increases the effectiveness of interventions and improves short- and long-term outcomes for our youngest children. Improved outcomes lessen the burden on Iowa taxpayers by reducing the incidence and severity of child developmental and behavioral problems, benefitting our state’s health, education, child welfare and juvenile justice systems.
