Making Eye Health a Population Health Imperative

Book Description
The ability to see deeply affects how human beings perceive and interpret the world around them. For most people, eyesight is part of everyday communication, social activities, educational and professional pursuits, the care of others, and the maintenance of personal health, independence, and mobility. Functioning eyes and vision system can reduce an adult's risk of chronic health conditions, death, falls and injuries, social isolation, depression, and other psychological problems. In children, properly maintained eye and vision health contributes to a child's social development, academic achievement, and better health across the lifespan. The public generally recognizes its reliance on sight and fears its loss, but emphasis on eye and vision health, in general, has not been integrated into daily life to the same extent as other health promotion activities, such as teeth brushing; hand washing; physical and mental exercise; and various injury prevention behaviors. A larger population health approach is needed to engage a wide range of stakeholders in coordinated efforts that can sustain the scope of behavior change. The shaping of socioeconomic environments can eventually lead to new social norms that promote eye and vision health. Making Eye Health a Population Health Imperative: Vision for Tomorrow proposes a new population-centered framework to guide action and coordination among various, and sometimes competing, stakeholders in pursuit of improved eye and vision health and health equity in the United States. Building on the momentum of previous public health efforts, this report also introduces a model for action that highlights different levels of prevention activities across a range of stakeholders and provides specific examples of how population health strategies can be translated into cohesive areas for action at federal, state, and local levels.

Book Description
The Housewright Symposium on the Future of Music Education, held at Florida State University in Tallahassee in 1999, assembled 175 music educators, industry representatives, community arts leaders, and students to speculate about what music education might look like in 2020 and the directions the field might take. Participant presentations were published in 2000 as the book Vision 2020, and the current reprint shares the ideas of the likes of Wiley Housewright, Clifford Madsen, Judith Jellison, and other illuminati of music teaching and learning. The contributors to this book asked leading questions about the value of music education, its place in the curriculum, and its possible futures. Many preservice music teachers in the intervening twenty years read chapters like “Why Study Music?” or “How Can All People Continue to Be Involved in Music Education?”—questions whose answers are as relevant today as they were at the end of the last century. As music education moves into a new phase with the current pandemic, the topics considered in this publication are of increasing importance to the discussion. An introduction by two successive presidents of the National Association for Music Education, Kathleen D. Sanz of Florida and Mackie V. Spradley of Texas, place this places this reprint edition in the context of the present day and looks at future directions of the profession.

America's Essential Data at Risk
Author: Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : American community survey
Languages : en
Pages : 34
Book Description
This report was undertaken by The Census Project upon the news that for the first time in its history, the Census Bureau could only release experimental data from its annual 2020 ACS 1-year survey and subsequently had to delay the 5-year products. Local planners, business leaders, and policymakers at all levels were consequentially hampered in updating their plans and models--at the very moment the country was most in need of trusted information to respond to multiple challenges: a once-in-a-century pandemic; a severe economic downturn; and rapidly rising inflation. The Census Project initiated this comprehensive review of the ACS to outline how it could be enhanced to better aid the nation as we address confounding changes in the labor force, the workplace, supply chains, social dynamics, and neighborhoods across America. The coronavirus pandemic disrupted America's data infrastructure--including the ACS--and reminded us that our access to high-quality data for decision-making is not guaranteed. Our objective here is to pose the question of how we can ensure the quality and accessibility of ACS data for all those who rely on the data. Before we can answer this question, we need to provide some background on the ACS and why it's so important. We hope to set an agenda to create a new vision of the ACS, to strengthen it and enable it to better serve the nation. We begin with discussion of the origin and many uses of ACS data, followed by the current limitations of the survey and potential opportunities to improve the quality, timeliness, and robustness of the data.
