Every year, Children’s Defense Fund-Minnesota publishes a KIDS COUNT Data Book that includes state data on a variety of indicators that reflect the well-being of Minnesota’s children and families. The data serves as benchmarks of child well-being for policymakers and citizens and help to enrich local, state and national discussions that center on creating better futures for all children. CDF-MN organizes an annual KIDS COUNT Coffee Tour around the release of the book to provide policymakers and citizens from around the state with the opportunity to learn about the data and engage on issues of child well-being. This year the tour is virtual.\

Join us to learn about the trends in key indicators of child and family well-being. The book highlights public policy that has improved or could improve outcomes for our youngest citizens and the entire state of Minnesota.

Please join us for a presentation of findings:
