The KIDS COUNT Data Book—now in its 28th year—provides an up-to-date and detailed picture of how children are faring in the United States, nationally and in each state. The KIDS COUNT Data Book features a comprehensive index of child well-being and includes a national profile and state-level rankings across four content domains: (1) Economic Well-Being, (2) Education, (3) Health, and (4) Family and Community. The 2017 Data Book reveals many bright spots for children and family well-being during the economic recovery following the Great Recession, yet room for improvement remains in many areas.

Policy Brief: The Need for Reproductive Health Education in Schools in Egypt
(2012) One in five people in Egypt is between the ages of 15 and 24, a total of 16 million in 2012, according to the United Nations Population Division. In the next 15 years, 26 million more Egyptians will reach age 15.
(2003) From instituting new maternal health policies to addressing the quality of health services for pregnant women and their newborns, Guatemala is taking a number of steps to try to reduce deaths and disability related to pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum complications.
(2019) Since 1990, the child population has become more racially and ethnically diverse and the share of children with at least one immigrant parent has more than doubled.
(2006)The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has experienced major improvements in health over the past few decades.1 Today, on average, a girl born in Egypt is expected to live for 72 years—nearly 20 years longer than if she had been born in the early 1970s—owing in large part to a 70 percent improvement in infant mortality rates over the same time period.
The 2018 Data Book focuses on key trends in child well-being during the economic recovery following the Great Recession. Over the last six years, children experienced gains in economic well-being, but results were mixed for the Health, Education, and Family and Community domains. The Data Book also highlights the growing undercount of young children in each decennial census since 1980, and discusses the risks and implications of another undercount in 2020.
