Session Description: At the same time that children have become a shrinking percentage of the US population, they have become increasingly diverse, with needs that vary by geography, income, race, ethnicity, and immigrant background. In this session, AAP President Susan Kressly, MD, FAAP, will explore these trends, their consequences, and how we can build ongoing support to invest in children and those who care for them.
