National Summit for Children’s Health in a Changing Climate

How Communities Protect Children from Climate and Environment Harms

Join us for the National Summit for Children's Health in a Changing Climate: How Communities Protect Children from Climate and Environment Harms. This FREE, virtual, and virtually carbon-emission free event is bringing together pediatric healthcare providers, early and K–12 educators, child care providers, home visitors, and others who will share their work underway NOW — in partnership with families and communities — to protect children already living with new climate extremes.

Summit details:

• Live Spanish translation and captioning available

• Certificates of attendance for all participants

• Recordings available following the event

Why Attend?

Our changing climate is already affecting the places where children live, learn, play, and grow. Across the country, communities are responding with innovative, collaborative solutions that are making a difference today—and building a healthier tomorrow. During this national conversation, you'll discover how pediatricians, early childhood educators, home visitors, community leaders, public agencies, and families are working together to:

🌱 Reduce carbon emissions in their communities

🏡 Create healthier and more resilient early learning environments

🤝 Build cross-sector partnerships

🌎 Prepare the next generation to care for the world they'll inherit
