During several sessions at the 2008 Spring Conference, mention was made of some publications offered by the Joint Center. Some of these were at their display at the Conference, but we heard they ran out of some of them. Please check these links for more information:

stress_and_social_support_addressing_the_crisis_in_black_infant_mortality__1 
This is the "red book" referred to by Dr. Fleda Mask Jackson in her keynote address on Tuesday morning and also during the panel discussion on Tuesday afternoon on the video series, Unnatural Causes: Is Inequality Making Us Sick?.

nutrition_and_infant_mortality_in_the_context_of_relationality__1
