  • Description:
    America’s Children: Key National Indicators of Well-Being, 2003 is the seventh report in an annual series prepared by the Forum agencies. As in past years, readers will find here an accessible compendium of indicators—drawn from the most reliable official statistics—illustrative of both the promises and the difficulties confronting our Nation’s young people. The report presents 25 key indicators on important aspects of children’s lives. These indicators are easy to understand by broad audiences, objectively based on substantial research connecting them to reliable data on child well-being, balanced so that no single area of children’s lives dominates the report, measured regularly so that they can be updated to show trends over time, and representative of large segments of the population rather than one particular group. The report also presents data on nine contextual measures that describe changes in the characteristics of the population as well as in children’s family settings and living arrangements.
