Youths who are negatively affected by social determinants of health suffer adverse effects like increased risks of chronic health conditions and mental health issues. Part 1 of this series describes many underserved communities and the various ways their status affects their health. Members of these vulnerable communities include foster children, runaway youths, immigrants, Black, Latinx, Native American, and other children from minority racial groups, LGBTQ+ youths, and children living in poverty. This collection describes the challenges faced by each of these populations and how that adversity shapes their present and future health.
The digital Pediatric Collection on Social Determinants of Health is available at collections.aap.org, and is updated continually. Access to digital Pediatric Collections articles varies based on your subscription status.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Doody's 5 Star Review
"This book is informative, clinically relevant, and written to encourage both practice and policy changes. The American Academy of Pediatrics has used the leadership role to develop this series of peer-reviewed publications to advocate for high-quality pediatric care. This means addressing childhood poverty as the number one factor in the social determinants of health and shedding light on strategies to improve care regardless of social class, personal history, or cultural, spiritual, gender, racial, or ethnic identity."
