Regardless of the responsible entity suggested, myriad challenges inhibit effective responses to this crisis.

We reflect on three core issues that present a challenge to effective and compassionate care for both infants and their caregivers, including gaps in infrastructure, lack of effective treatment engagement and facilitation strategies, and decentralized and siloed data to evaluate the effects of policy and programmatic changes.
