In
January of 2019, community partners from multiple agencies agreed to work together to compile a “data snapshot” of some of the most
pressing issues affecting Lake County’s children. The goal of this document
is to bring greater awareness to these issues and the ways they are impacting
the next generation and to raise
prevention as a priority issue in our community. The areas
covered in this report include: early prenatal care, fetal alcohol and drug
exposure, youth substance use, poverty, education, child safety and security,
and delinquent activity of youth.
Additional data on a wide range of issues affecting children, and our
community, can be found at:HopeRisingLC.org, ChildrenNow.org, KidsData.org,
Census.gov, CDE.ca.gov, and DOF.ca.gov.
