Abstract

America’s Children in Brief, 2018 uses both established and previously untapped data sources to characterize vulnerable children across several of the domains included in the Forum’s conceptual framework. The measures included provide emerging insight on children who face special and heightened risks to their well-being. Each section of the report addresses why the measure of at-risk children is important and presents information on characteristics of the population of at-risk children.
