Trends in the Well-Being of America's Children and Youth, 1997.
Child Trends, Inc., Washington, DC.
This is the second edition of an annual report on trends in the well-being of America's children and youth. Presented in five sections, the report describes national trends for over 80 indicators of the well-being of children and youth, based on data collected by the federal government. The information provided for each indicator includes one or more tables documenting recent historical trends and important population sub-group differences, graphics to highlight key trends and group contrasts, and accompanying text that describes the importance of each indicator and highlights the most salient features of the data. The indicators are grouped into five substantive areas: (1) population, family, and neighborhood; (2) economic security; (3) health conditions and health care; (4) social development, behavioral health, and teen fertility; and (5) education and achievement.
