Kids Count in the Classroom

KIDS COUNT, a project of the Annie E. Casey Foundation, is a national and state-by-state effort to track the status of children in the U.S. By providing policymakers and citizens with benchmarks of child well-being, KIDS COUNT seeks to enrich local, state, and national discussions concerning ways to secure better futures for all children. To learn more, visit the KIDS COUNT website.

Under a grant from the Annie E. Casey Foundation, SSDAN is working with professors to introduce KIDS COUNT data into social science courses.
