California County Children’s Well-Being Scorecard Released

The 2018-19 California County Scorecard of Children’s Well-Being was released this week. The report, published by Children Now, is an interactive report that details a comprehensive snapshot of how children are faring in each of California’s 58 counties over time and by race and ethnicity. The scorecard features indicators across four domains of health, education, early childhood, and child welfare.

The latest edition of the scorecard includes various enhancements, such as heat maps for each indicator, to allow users to make comparisons across counties and regions. The data included in the scorecard can provide insight on a variety of child-related measures and indicators and assist in informed local decision-making.

The scorecard is available here. A webinar on how to use the scorecard will also be held next Tuesday, October 30 from 11:00 am – 12:00 pm; registration is available here.
