Annotation: This workshop was held to allow medical professionals in psychology, nutrition, nursing social work, and medicine to address the goals of providing an orientation to maternal and child health (MCH) philosophy and programs. The goals addressed were providing an opportunity for training program staff to share uniqueness of design and approach to problems; encouraging free dialogue between multidisciplinary program staff from sites with geographical barriers to ongoing communications; developing models for an integrated approach to the teaching of health and medical care of the adolescent and young adult; identifying individual program strengths and weaknesses; encouraging complementary support systems between programs; and exploring ways in which the staff of training projects may serve as consultants to projects in their community or general geographic area. [Funded by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau]
