| Abstract | This Michigan Kids Count data book for 1994 describes the condition of children in each of Michigan's 83 counties. The first part of the report presents discussions of economic security, housing, child care, education, and health care, addressing the state and national experience for families and children, critical issues, and policies and programs with the potential to affect outcomes for children. The second part of the report presents a more detailed picture for each county in five (1) economic security (the geographic distribution of poverty within counties); (2) 10-year trends in risky births using three health indicators: teenage mothers with inadequate prenatal care; low birthweight babies; births to teens without a high school diploma; (3) education outcomes as reflected in the basic skills test results (Michigan Education Assessment Program scores) for 4th, 5th, 7th, 8th, 10th and 11th grades; (4) trends in rate changes over time for each county on eight key indicators of child well-being (inadequate prenatal care, low birth-weight babies, births to teens with no diplomas, infant mortality, child deaths, teen violent deaths, serious (index) crime arrests, and high school dropouts (1993); and (5) county trends compared to statewide trends. The report notes that, overall, the majority of Michigan's children are adequately housed and nurtured. However, there is a growing share of the state's children who are not being reared with these supports. These children can be found in urban, suburban, and rural communities. The report's appendix presents annual data for ten indicators for the state and counties. (AA) |
