The State of Children in Alabama

Our children, how are they doing? For more than 25 years, VOICES for Alabama’s Children has

collected and reported on state level trends and county level data on child well-being published

in the 2017 Alabama Kids Count Data Book. Without data we would not know if we are

improving child well-being in our state and if programs and investments are working. Rhonda

Mann, Deputy Director of VOICES for Alabama’s Children, will share insights and highlights of

the data and research on child well-being in our state and how we compare to other states in

the nation.
