Imagine

Imagine giving students a visual appreciation of early human development, and showing them the interconnectedness of prenatal health and lifelong health. This is now an exciting possibility with EHD's online education resources.

The Problem

Children are born each day with severe birth defects as a direct result of exposure to harmful substances such as alcohol and tobacco during pregnancy. A profound lack of awareness of the critical development events occurring before birth contributes to these ongoing, preventable tragedies.

The Solution

A visual appreciation of early human development motivates healthy behavior before, during, and after pregnancy. When you, and thousands of others like you, join with us to provide universal image-based prenatal development education, we can change lives, one school, one student, one clinic, and one patient at a time. The public health benefits are enormous: improved maternal health, prevention of certain birth defects and learning and behavioral disabilities, reduced health care and special education costs, and enhanced educational potential for students of all backgrounds and economic strata.
