2007 Maine KIDS COUNT Brochures by County
The Maine KIDS COUNT Project is pleased to present our county by county data brochures for 2007. These brochures present the indicators of child well-being available at the county-level from the 2007 Maine KIDS COUNT Data Book in an easy to use format. For each indicator in the brochures, we present the number of events and, whenever appropriate, the rate and the percent change in the rate of those events for the county and for the state. A comprehensive definition of each indicator is also included, along with the source of the indicator data.
These brochures can be read online or printed. The brochures are designed to be printed on both sides, on legal size paper. The front of the brochure is the county profile and the back is the definition and sources of data. Once printed, they can be folded to create brochures by folding the document in half (definitions on the inside) and then folding them again (indicators on the inside).
If you have questions about the brochures, the data, or the Maine KIDS COUNT Project, please don't hesitate to contact us at (207) 623-1868 or at mainekids@mekids.org.
