Poor children are at greater risk for worse health, less productivity, and harms to well-being that extend into adulthood and subsequent generations. Timing and duration of poverty matter and influence life course outcomes, especially for education, health, and lifetime productivity. This article focuses on interventions by policy advocacy and the pediatric health system, and protection of the health and well-being of families in economic hardship from disadvantages and trauma wrought by poverty. A framework is presented for child poverty prevention and its consequences for lifelong health and success on a national scale.
贫困儿童面临着更大的健康风险，生产力更低，其福祉所受的损害会延续至成年期及后代。贫困的时机和持续时间至关重要，并会影响人生轨迹的结果，尤其是在教育、健康和终身生产力方面。本文重点关注政策倡导和儿科医疗系统的干预措施，以及保护处于经济困境中的家庭的健康和福祉，使其免受贫困带来的不利影响和创伤。本文提出了一个关于在全国范围内预防儿童贫困及其对终身健康和成功的影响的框架。
