Abstract	For more than 25 years, Advocates for Children of New Jersey (ACNJ) has produced the New Jersey KIDS COUNT Data Book, an annual statewide profile of child well-being. With KIDS COUNT represented in each state and several U.S. territories, ACNJ is part of a comprehensive effort to not only track how well kids are faring across New Jersey, but also on a national level. Funded by the Annie E. Casey Foundation, KIDS COUNT informs policymakers and the public of the progress made and work needed to ensure the health, welfare and safety of all children. This year's data book features a new layout with explanations of specific indicators, as well as updates on how certain information is collected and measured. Each year ACNJ tries to incorporate new indicators of child well-being based on suggestions from its network or new data sources that become available. ACNJ obtains data primarily from state departments and agencies, but much of the demographic information is obtained through the U.S. Census, American Community Survey (ACS). While the census counts basic information every ten years, the ACS provides a richer data set every year which includes age, disability status, housing condition, ancestry, education level, race/ethnicity and marital and family status.
