The range of topics this special issue demonstrates the diversity and currency of approaches to child and family health, including: chronic illness, disability, the role of fathers in providing care, and children's experiences of parents with a mental illness.
Within the family context, this volume considers violence, eating disorders, family support issues and immigration detention.
Within the community context, this volume considers issues such as emergency contraception, childhood obesity, the value of nurse-led clinics, health assessment of primary school children and the central role of women in building systems and health capacity for children, families and communities, narrowing the gap between urban and rural areas with respect to health opportunities and outcomes.
