About This Event

Join us for Indiana Youth Institute’s 2024 State of the Child presentation to learn about and connect around key data on Hoosier youth well-being from IYI’s recently released 2024 Indiana KIDS COUNT® Data Book. IYI's 2024 KIDS COUNT® Data Book examines the overall well-being of Indiana kids, including the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and continuation of racial and ethnic disparities in outcomes across four domains, Family & Community, Health, Economic Well-Being, and Education.  

The Indiana KIDS COUNT Data Book is an annual snapshot of the most recent information and trends in Indiana child well-being. Access to reliable, high-quality data and resources empowers and equips leaders, policymakers, youth workers, and advocates with a go-to, trusted source to create positive change for Indiana youth. 

This year’s State of the Child will be an interactive event to dive into local youth-centered data and connect with those working in the youth-services field around how to use data for action. Special emphasis at this local presentation will be given to Bartholomew County data and how it compares to the state of Indiana, as well as how to use the online County Dashboard to access county-specific data.

This event will be held at The REC at NexusPark. Lunch will be provided, and registration is required.
