Extractions: Tennessee Representative Ken Givens doesn't remember the exact moment he decided to take on school health as an issue, but he does remember casually discussing the topic regularly over dinner with his wife Connie, who worked as a school nurse for 27 years. "Some of the stories she's told me have been just remarkable. Connie's worked in a school system that had almost 8,000 kids, and she's seen it all," he says. Representative Givens remembers one story in particular. A teacher at Connie's school told her that one little boy hadn't shown up for school and that the attendance office hadn't looked into the absence. The school asked Connie to check it out, to see what the problem was. She went to the house, thinking the kid probably was sick. Was it a cold, an earache or a sore throat? Unfortunately, the problem was a little more basic than that. "He didn't have any shoes," explains Givens. "The little boy's mother lived in public housing and received public assistance. She just said simply that he had worn out his last pair of tennis shoes and was not in school for that reason. He missed two or three days of school before they checked on him."

Bright Futures for Infants, Children, and Adolescents The goal of Bright Futures, a national initiative launched in 1990, is to respond to the current and emerging preventive and health promotion needs of infants, children, and adolescents. At the beginning of the 20th century, infectious diseases caused most of the morbidity and mortality in children. Although there has been great success in reducing contagious diseases, children today face new issues. Over the past several decades, major economic, social, and demographic changes have significantly affected American families. These societal changes have brought shifts in the chief causes of morbidity and mortality among children and adolescents. Injuries are now the leading cause of death for children older than 1 year. In addition, a significant percentage of American children have mental and emotional disorders. Developmental problems, educational failure, too much risk taking, lack of supervision, and child abuse are also among these "new morbidities." Also, the population of children with special health needs due to illness or disability has grown. Activities Bright Futures responds to current and emerging preventive and health promotion needs of infants, children and adolescents. The program enhances the knowledge and skills of health care providers to help them practice developmentally appropriate, preventive health care in the context of family and community. Bright Futures

Extractions: Dietitians are health professionals who apply the science and art of human nutrition to client needs. They help individuals and families of all ages, cultures, and economic means choose foods for adequate nutrition in health or disease throughout the life cycle. Dietitians also supervise the preparation and service of food to groups, develop modified diets, participate in nutrition research, and supervise the nutritional aspects of health care. Dietitians may work in hospitals and other health care facilities or in private practice. They may work for government or community agencies, food industries, restaurants, schools, universities, the military, in communications, sales, or in a variety of other situations. As the public continues to recognize the dietetic professional as the true nutrition expert, demand for dietitians' services increases. A registered dietitian is a professional who must have a college degree in nutrition, complete an internship or planned work experience, and pass a national examination to become registered. After becoming registered, the dietitian maintains continuing education requirements by attending workshops and lectures to keep nutrition knowledge up to date. Career Opportunities Clinical Dietetics and Research The clinical dietitian, provider of nutrition services in health care settings, is a vital part of the medical team in hospitals, out-patient clinics, research laboratories, and private practice.
