The Centre for Community Child Health
Every two minutes a baby is born in Australia. What happens - or doesn't happen - to this child in their earliest years of life will affect not only their immediate health and wellbeing but will also lay the foundations for their future.
The Centre for Community Child Health (CCCH) has been at the forefront of Australian research into early childhood development and behaviour for over two decades.
CCCH conducts research into the many conditions and common problems faced by children, such as obesity, language and literacy delay, and behavioural concerns, that are either preventable or can be improved if recognised and managed early.
A particular focus of CCCH's work is supporting and strengthening community-based professionals and organisations in their work with families to bring about the best outcomes for children.
