Abstract | This Kids Count factbook examines statewide trends in well-being for South Dakota's children. The statistical portrait is based on 24 indicators in the areas of demographics, health, education, economic status, and safety. The indicators are: (1) poverty thresholds; (2) population; (3) population on Indian Reservations; (4) infant mortality; (5) low birth weight rate; (6) child death rate; (7) teen violent death rate; (8) rate of births to single teens; (9) prenatal care rates; (10) immunization rates; (11) school enrollment; (12) dropout rates; (13) number of children with special needs; (14) poverty statistics; (15) personal income; (16) number of women in the workforce; (17) TANF, food stamps, and Medicaid recipients; (18) child care services; (19) juvenile offense referrals; (20) child abuse and neglect rates; (21) youth related traffic accidents; (22) juvenile drug and alcohol treatment admissions; (23) youth tobacco use; and (24) youth risk behaviors. The first part of the factbook presents introductory materials and a summary of the report. The major portion of the factbook presents state and county data tables for each indicator. Among the findings are the following: the percent of children living with underemployed parents is one of the lowest in the country; teen birth rate is 50% below the national rate; infant mortality rate has declined; and the child death rate is among the highest in the nation. The factbook concludes with a section listing data resources, Web sites of interest, information on performing data calculations, and interpretation instructions. (SD) |
