The Human Investment Industry and the Challenges it Faces


What is the Human Investment Industry in BRUW Service Areas ?

Independent and collective action to address the education, health, housing, family support, emergency financial, and transportation needs of families and individuals in BRUW service areas.

Increasingly these efforts seek to prevent needs through promoting increased self-sufficiency among the communities' people while still intervening to respond to crises and other concerns.

The Roots of the Challenge Thirty Years of Economic and Social Changes

Emergence of new persistent poor in late 1960's and early 1970's

Massive loss of low skill/high pay jobs

Sharp rise in working poor

Decline in young male workers' wages

Increase in female headed families

Increase in substance abuse

All trends disproportionately impact African-Americans and families with young children.

Importance of Brain Development for Children 0-3

Excerpt from: "The First Years Last Forever: I am Your Child"

Eighty percent of brain development occurs by age three.

Early experiences help to determine brain structure, thus shaping the way people learn, think, and behave for the rest of their lives.

The outside world shapes the brain's wiring.

The outside world is experienced through the senses - seeing, hearing, smelling, touching, and tasting - enabling the brain to create or modify connections.

Relationships with consistent caregivers early in life are the major source of development of the emotional and social parts of the brain.

Principles of Brain Development


Top Risk Factors for Young Children Age 0-4

Low-income and poverty

Teen mother, especially those with more than one child

Absent father

Short spacing between births (less than 24 months)

Parent, especially the mother, without a high school education

Child Care Helps Shape Children's FuturesAnd is Key to School Readiness

Excerpt from: Children's Defense Fund, "Child Care Basics," 1999.

A recent major study found that children in high quality child care demonstrated greater mathematical ability, greater thinking and attention skills, and fewer behavioral problems. These differences held true for children from a range of family backgrounds, with particularly significant effects for children at risk.

Research shows that quality of child care has a lasting impact on children's well-being and ability to learn. Children in poor quality child care have been found to be delayed in language and reading skills, and display more aggression toward other children and adults.
