In 2012, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) initiated a project informally called the “B-24 project.” This multi-phase project was originally intended to conclude in 2018 with information that could help the Departments develop dietary recommendations for infants and toddlers for release separate from the Dietary Guidelines. The first phase was completed in 2012-2013. In February 2014, Congress passed the Agricultural Act of 2014, also known as the Farm Bill, mandating that the Dietary Guidelines expand to include dietary guidance for infants and toddlers (from birth to age 24 months), as well as women who are pregnant, beginning with the 2020-2025 edition. Thus, USDA and HHS adjusted the purpose, timeline, and scope of the project. Now called the “Pregnancy and Birth to 24 Months project” or “P/B-24 project” to reflect the addition of pregnant women, this project is a joint initiative led by USDA and HHS in collaboration with programmatic and scientific experts. Rather than concluding in 2018 with dietary recommendations, the goal of the current project is to begin examining topics of public health importance for women who are pregnant and infants and toddlers from birth to 24 months of age. The findings from this work will be made publicly available at the completion of the project.

The sub-IPC will prioritize actions that improve equity and are informed by those with lived experience.

This President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) activity focuses on testing treatment as prevention on the population level in South Africa and Zambia. This activity was initiated through the HIV Prevention Trials Network (HPTN), with support of multiple National Institutes of Health (NIH) Institutes and Centers, PEFPAR, and the Bill ; Melinda Gates Foundation. The Requests for Application (RFA) was issued concurrently with a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) RFA for combination prevention, and the agencies have worked together to ensure that the studies are complementary and do not overlap.

The President's Task Force on Environmental Health and Safety Risks to Children is the focal point for coordinating the federal government's effort to explore, understand, and improve children's environmental health. The task force's objectives are to: 1) develop federal interagency strategies to protect children’s environmental health and safety; 2) identify priority children's environmental health and safety issues best addressed through federal interagency efforts; and 3) communicate information to federal, state, and local decision-makers to protect children from environmental health risks. The Lead Subcommittee seeks to reduce lead exposure and associated harms through collaboration among federal agencies and with a range of stakeholders, including states, tribes and local communities, along with businesses, property owners and parents. This Subcommittee will help federal agencies work strategically and collaboratively to reduce exposure to lead with the aim of ultimately improving children’s health.
