ABSTRACT
This Kids Count Data Book examines statewide trends in the
well-being of Alaska's children. The statistical portrait is based on key
(1) infancy, including prenatal care, low birth
indicators in six areas:
weight, and infant mortality; (2) economic well-being, including child
poverty, children with no parent working full-time, and teen births;
(3)
education, including dropout rates, teens not in school and not working, and
(4) child safety, including child death rate, teen
school achievement;
violent death rate, and child abuse and neglect;
(5) juvenile crime,
including arrests for violent crimes; and (6) health risks, including
carrying a weapon, sexual activity, and tobacco use. Following an
introduction describing the uniqueness of Alaska and summarizing the report's
findings, the report details the indicators in the areas mentioned above.
Among the findings, the report indicates that Alaska fared better than the
national average in percentage of babies with low birth weight, births to
teens, percentage of teens who drop out of school, and child poverty rates.
Alaska fared at or near the national average for infant mortality rate,
percentage of children with no parent working full-time, and, percentage of
single-parent families. Alaska fared worse than the national average for teen
violent death rate, child death rate, and percentage of teens not in school
and not working. The report concludes with suggested family resources and
information on the indicator data sources.
