Program to fight haltonn@starbulletin.com Hawaii's Healthy Start Program, designed to strengthen families and prevent child abuse and neglect, is changing to address more complex problems facing today's families. A study by the Johns Hopkins Children's Center found that home visits and services provided by Healthy Start paraprofessionals developed family trust but did not prevent child abuse or reduce risk factors. Home visitors known as paraprofessionals are not required to have degrees, but must have 30 hours of basic training, shadow senior home visitors at the beginning and receive periodic training throughout the year. Loretta Fuddy, who oversees Healthy Start as chief of the state Health Department's Family Health Services Division, said the "very rigorous" Hopkins study used a higher definition of child abuse, such as harsh discipline.

Extractions: In his private practice Joel Fuhrman, M.D. has worked with many families to turn around their health and eating habits. He helps children with recurrent medical problems recover their health with nutritional interventions, avoiding the need for further drugs. Dr. Fuhrman has the solution for your frequentily ill child. Backed up by a multitude of scientific studies, he explains how eating particular foods (and avoiding others) can have a significant impact on your child's resistance to dangerous infections and their intelligence and success in school. For example, a change in dietary habits can have a dramatic effect on reducing the occurance of illnesses like ear infections, asthma, and allergies, and the right foods introduced early in life can increase your child's IQ. Dr. Fuhrman presents the fascinating science that demonstrates that the current epidemic of adult cancers and other diseases is closely linked to what we eat in the first quarter of our life and explains how eating right in childhood is the most powerful weapon against our growing cancer epidemic. He also reveals how the seeds for future auto-immune diseases are sown in childhood and that by eating right today, children can be healthy tomorrow. His nutrient-rich dietary recommendations give parents the information they need to ensure that their children are eating right to maintain a healthy mind and body. Moreover, he will give parents guidelines on how to get even the pickiest eater to learn to love healthy food. Also featured are his child-tested recipes that are delicious, easy-to-prepare, and great for the whole family. They make healthy eating kid-friendly.

Extractions: Executive Director, Consuelo Foundation Inc.** We all have met or read about individuals who have grown up in undesirable family circumstances and yet, somehow, have been able to overcome barriers put before them. We hear their stories and wonder at the miracle of their transformation. It is sad to say that they are the exception. For every person who broke away from his disadvantaged situation, there are hundreds of thousands of Filipino children who did not beat the odds; born into a resource-poor household and living a life more deprived than their parents. Our vision for the children of Healthy Start is that Filipino children from poor, high-risk families will no longer fall behind their more advantaged peers because their parents, caregivers and communities provided a nurturing environment where they can grow, thrive, and learn. Healthy Start aims to eliminate the root causes of poverty, child abandonment, violence and destructive parenting practices by:
