San Diego County will release its own report card on the health and well-being of children and families who live here during the Board of Supervisors’ regular meeting at 9 a.m. today.
The report, produced in conjunction with the county by a local nonprofit called The Children’s Initiative, grades the county on 26 indicators measured over time. They include trends on topics like:
- Mothers receiving prenatal care
- Children living in poverty
- School attendance rates
- Obesity
- Youth DUI arrests
The meeting will be in Room 310 at 1600 Pacific Highway. We’ll have more from the report after the meeting.
