Here’s how advocates in Arkansas, Kentucky, and New Jersey are building trust and leveraging relationships to achieve a complete count in #Census2030 that unlocks the resources that children and families need. @AACF @KYYouth @CountAllKids foramericaschildren.org/no-s…
We are excited to share with you the first research we have seen documenting that state outreach activities in 2020 did improve census participation, particularly in communities where young children are at high risk of being missed. countallkids.org/resources/n…
We have updated the Child Advocate's Roadmap to 2030 to address new opportunities and challenges from the past year. It is designed to help child advocates and child serving organizations improve the Census count of young children in 2030. countallkids.org/resources/a…
The Count All Kids steering committee is drafting a resource with recommendations for state strategies to enhance the count of young children. Your reflection on mitigating barriers to complete the census form will help inform the guide. Take the survey: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
NEW BLOG: Three organizations have just released important new resources on the Census. countallkids.org/resources/n…
Members of the Count All Kids Campaign have been pressing the Census Bureau for years to test new strategies for counting young children. We believe that if they keep doing what they have been doing, the problem will just get worse. Read more: countallkids.org/resources/a…
Today we published a brief that compares the undercount of young children in US counties with 20 factors that might contribute to such undercounts, to see which factors correlate with the undercount. Read it here: countallkids.org/resources/c…
The one factor that seems statistically significant in the same way for both total population and young children is the percentage of adults with less than a high school degree, suggesting that improved efforts to reach households with low literacy could improve these counts.
Our latest blog shares a summary of recent Census news. The Census Bureau has dramatically changed their plan for the 2026 Census Test. We believe the new plan is profoundly flawed and will give meaningless and potentially misleading results. countallkids.org/resources/a…
This week, we shared comments to the Census Bureau and the Independent Census Scientific Advisory Committee that call for reinstating the original Census Test plan in order to improve the count of young children.

While administrative records produce a count of young children consistent with other benchmark counts of young children as a whole, they offer puzzling inconsistencies when the data is decomposed by age, sex, and race or ethnicity. Read more on our blog: countallkids.org/resources/c…

From the results of our latest report, we can conclude that more analysis of the 2020 Census Tracking survey is needed to find out which families are most likely to leave their young children off the count. Read more: countallkids.org/resources/s…
