New Publications from Children First for Oregon and the Annie E. Casey Foundation

Two new publications have just become available from Children First for Oregon and the Annie E. Casey Foundation that will support our work to make Oregon a place where all children thrive.
The first is a Policy Brief from Children First for Oregon, entitled: “Affordable Child Care in Oregon.”
This brief details the rising costs of child care over the past decade, and what can be done to improve the affordability, and quality of child care across our state.

The second publication is the recently released national KIDS COUNT Data Book from the Annie E. Casey Foundation.
In addition to updating national trend data, the annual National KIDS COUNT Data Book highlights data on adolescents in the juvenile justice system.
