Child population by age, metropolitan Chicago in Illinois

Bill Byrnes, KIDS COUNT Project Manager

Voices for Illinois Children champions the full development of every child in Illinois to assure the future well-being of everyone in the state. We work with families, communities, and policymakers across multiple issue areas to help children grow up healthy, happy, safe, loved, and well-educated. 

Illinois Kids Count is a project of Voices for Illinois Children and is part of a nationwide network of state-level projects supported by the Annie E. Casey Foundation. The annual Illinois Kids Count report is widely regarded as the most thorough examination of the children's lives in the state. It uses the best available data to monitor the educational, social-emotional, economic, and physical well-being of Illinois children. The report and accompanying information is available at www.voices4kids.org.
