Abstract
Description
Welcome to the 2016 KIDS COUNT in Delaware Fact Book. This project is
a collaborative effort of over forty organizations and is housed within the
Center for Community Research & Service at the University of Delaware. By
providing policymakers and citizens with benchmarks of child well-being, KIDS
COUNT seeks to enrich local and state discussion concerning ways to secure
better lives for all children. Our mission is to provide up-to-date, accurate, objective,
comprehensive data on the well-being of children, youth and their families in order
to raise awareness and inform both policy and programmatic decisions throughout
the state.
