ABOUT THE NEW REPORT CARD
San Diego Children & Families Data Hub
For more than 15 years, The Children’s Initiative has produced a Live Well San Diego Report Card on Children, Families, and Community that measured 25 child and youth health and well-being indicators – ranging from before birth (Early Prenatal Care) to Child Mortality. Transitioning to a more advanced platform, the Live Well San Diego Children & Families Data Hub (formerly known as the Live Well San Diego Report Card on Children, Families, and Community) now offers a robust web-based data platform. This tool enables community members, stakeholders, and government entities to analyze data to pinpoint both strengths and areas of improvement in child, youth, and family health and well-being.
​
The Children’s Initiative engages a diverse array of stakeholders, including subject matter and data experts specializing in juvenile justice, education, and health, alongside government executives, community-based organizations, parents, and youth. Guiding the development of this new Data Hub is a robust and influential Leadership Advisory Oversight Committee comprising national experts and local leaders in health, education, childcare, child welfare, juvenile justice, and injury and violence prevention. Furthermore, research and analysis are overseen by the Scientific Advisory Review Committee, which includes statisticians, epidemiologists, and program-data managers from these fields, ensuring the validity, reliability, and quality of all indicator data utilized.
​
Info on the new platform – The Children's Data Hub is a comprehensive, interactive web-based platform designed to serve as a trusted resource for the entire community. It offers access to critical data across 25 key health and well-being indicators, from Early Prenatal Care to Child Mortality. Making this data easily available, empowers community members, stakeholders, and government entities to use the information to make informed, data-driven decisions that can help reduce disparities and improve health/well-being outcomes for everyone.​
