A listing of the health and social needs of children is provided in an attempt to stimulate a demand for increased attention to youth of our country. Child abuse, violence, infant mortality, health care disparity and lack of insurance, working parents, poverty, adverse living conditions and arrangements, and increasing numbers of disadvantaged and/or minority children are some of the most pressing needs facing the youngest segment of our society today.
