ForewordKIDS COUNT, a project of the Annie E. Casey Foundation, seeks to trackthe status of children across the United States and within individual states.The national KIDS COUNT program publishes an annual KIDS COUNTData Book ranking state performance on 10 indicators reflecting theeducational, social, economic, and physical well-being of children. Thenational program also produces related publications addressing concernsthat affect child outcomes across states. State KIDS COUNT programspublish yearly reports detailing child well-being on a substate geographylevel (e.g., county or city). Both national and state KIDS COUNTprograms strive to document conditions affecting children in the areaswhere they live so that national, state, and local decision-making can moreeffectively address children's needs through sound policy creation. Formore information, visit the KIDS COUNT website at www.aecf.org/kidscount.

North Dakota KIDS COUNT has been examining critical issues for NorthDakota children and families since 1994. Now in its 11th year, NorthDakota KIDS COUNT is one of 50 state projects sponsored by the AnnieE. Casey Foundation.

North Dakota KIDS COUNT works with members of the educationalcommunity and others who advocate for children, and conducts researchso that national, state, and local decision-makers can more effectivelyidentify and address children’s needs. North Dakota KIDS COUNT offerspublic presentations, networking, and a website, as well as severalpublication series. To view the various publications offered by the NorthDakota KIDS COUNT program, visit our website atwww.ndkidscount.org.

The North Dakota KIDS COUNT Fact Book, now in its 11th year, is anannual publication that provides current state, regional, and countyprofiles based on seven categories of data representing multiple indicatorsof child health and well-being. This year's release is provided in anelectronic format only, thus bound versions of the publication will not beavailable. Please visit our website to view or print the Fact Book andother publications, research, and information regarding North Dakotachildren at www.ndkidscount.org.

In addition, Fact Book indicators are available on the Annie E. CaseyFoundation’s CLIKS (County-City-Community Level Data on Kids)website at www.aecf.org/kidscount/cliks. CLIKS offers trends, graphs,maps, and rankings for North Dakota counties as well as for otherparticipating states.

The 2005 North Dakota KIDSCOUNT Fact Book is divided intotwo main sections:

1. State, Regional, and CountyProfiles present the most recentavailable information (at the timeof posting) for seven categories ofchild well-being:

PopulationFamily CompositionEconomic ConditionChild CareHealthEducationChildren at Risk

Separate profiles are provided forthe state, the eight state planningregions, and the 53 counties inNorth Dakota. Actual numbers ofchildren or events are presentedalong with percentages that allowcounty-to-county and region-to-region comparisons. Data pre-sented in the state profile arerepeated in each county andregional profile for easy compari-son.

2. Definitions and Data Sourcessupply explanations and indicatordefinitions along with informationsources for respective data. It isstrongly recommended that readersuse these definitions forclarification and reference for thedata provided.

MethodologyDATA LIMITATIONSOverall, indicators have beenchosen on the basis of theiravailability by county, the validityof data sources, the ability toconvey a broad array of childoutcomes, the extent to which theyprovide for common interpretation,the possibility of availability overtime, and their usefulness as a toolto track long-term trends in childoutcomes.

It must be noted that not allchildren affected by a particularcondition are reported to oridentified by the proper authorities,nor are they all enrolled in anappropriate service program.Therefore, caution must beexercised in assessing the actualnumber of children whose livesmay be touched by a givensituation.

The 2005 North Dakota KIDSCOUNT Fact Book data includeAmerican Indian children livingoff reservations in all data sets.American Indian children living onreservations and in AmericanIndian service areas are included inCensus, Head Start, Child Care,and Education (excluding SpecialEducation) data. In addition,children living on Fort BertholdReservation and Spirit LakeReservation are included inDomestic Violence data.

North Dakota KIDS COUNT doesnot generate the statisticalinformation contained in the FactBook. The data are supplied bygovernment and not-for-profitagencies.

DATA MODIFICATIONSWith this year's publication, the following modifications were made to thestate, regional, and county profiles:

1. Within the Child Care category of each profile, an additional indicatorhas been added: Approved Relative Provider. See the Definitions andData Sources section on page 139 for a detailed explanation.

2. The Children at Risk category now includes the number of suspectedvictims in cases of child abuse and neglect where services were required.See the Definitions and Data Sources section on page 141 for a detailedexplanation.

3. A change in the reporting procedure for the Foster Care indicatorwithin the Family Composition category has been incorporated into thisyear's publication. Previously, the county level data reflected only thosechildren for whom the County Social Service Board in question wasresponsible. These county numbers did not include children in the cus-tody of a division other than the county (such as the Division of JuvenileServices, Tribal Social Services, or the Executive Director of the NorthDakota Department of Human Services). Children in the custody of theseother organizations were included in the statewide total, however, theywere excluded from county and regional numbers. With this publication,all children being served by the foster care program, regardless of theircustodian, are reported for each county and region where they are beingserved. Thus, county and regional level foster care data for Fiscal Year2004, as reported in this Fact Book, are not comparable to county andregional level foster care data in previous Fact Books. County level trenddata for this new reporting procedure on foster care are available on theCLIKS website at www.aecf.org/kidscount/cliks.

4. A change in the reporting procedure for the Special Education indicatorwithin the Education category has been incorporated into this year'spublication. Due to a change in how the North Dakota Department ofPublic Instruction releases the data, the county numbers now reflect thecounty in which the child is receiving services. Previously, the countyreflected the child's residence. While there is relatively little differencebetween the two reporting procedures, caution should be used whencomparing special education data reported in this year's publication withdata reported in previous Fact Books.

Definitions and Data SourcesChildren Ages 0 to 18 in Foster Care,Fiscal Year 2004 are children placed inliving situations outside their family homes asa result of Juvenile Court intervention. Inmost cases custody is given to either aCounty Social Service Board, a Tribal SocialService office, the Division of JuvenileServices, or the Executive Director of theNorth Dakota Department of HumanServices (e.g. in cases where parental rightshave been terminated). Beginning with the2005 Fact Book, all children being served bythe foster care program, regardless of theircustodian, are reported for each county andregion where they are being served. Inprevious editions of the Fact Book, countylevel data reflected only those children forwhom the County Social Service Board inquestion was responsible. Thus, the countynumbers did not include children in thecustody of a division other than a CountySocial Service Board. Children in thecustody of organizations other than CountySocial Service Boards were included in thestatewide total.

The data are presented by type ofplacement: Family Home Placements,Residential Child Care Facility or GroupHome Placements, and Other Placements.Numbers are unduplicated cases and excludesubsidized adoption. The percentage for themain indicator is the proportion thesechildren represent of the total childpopulation ages 0 to 18 in respectivegeographic areas. The percentages for theplacement subcategories represent theproportion of children ages 0 to 18 in fostercare in respective geographic areas.

Family Home Placements - an occupiedprivate residence in which foster care isregularly provided by the owner or lessee tono more than four children, unless all of thechildren in foster care are related to eachother by blood or marriage, in which casesuch limitation does not apply.

Children At RiskChild Abuse and Neglect Reports,Calendar Year 2003 are the total number ofofficial assessments made to the NorthDakota Department of Human Services(NDDHS) on behalf of a child where therewas the suspicion of child abuse or neglect.There is no percentage calculated for thisindicator.

Child abuse and neglect refers to any recentact or failure to act on the part of a parent orcaretaker, which results in the death, seriousphysical or emotional harm, sexual abuse, orexploitation, or an act or failure to act whichpresents an imminent risk of serious harm.Physical harm refers to any nonaccidentalphysical injury to the child, and can includestriking, kicking, burning, or biting the child,or any action that results in a physical

impairment of the child. Emotional harmrefers to injury to the psychological capacityor emotional stability of the child asevidenced by an observable or substantialchange in behavior, emotional response orcognition, or as evidenced by anxiety,depression, withdrawal, or aggressivebehavior. A neglected child, also referredto as a deprived child, refers to a child who1) is without proper parental care or control,subsistence, education, or other care orcontrol necessary for the child's physical,mental, emotional health, or morals, and thedeprivation is not due primarily to the lack offinancial means of the child's parents,guardian, or other custodian; 2) has beenplaced for care or adoption in violation oflaw; 3) is without proper parental care,control, education, or other care and controlnecessary for the child's well-being becauseof the physical, mental, emotional, or otherillness or disability of the child's parent orparents, and that such lack of care is not dueto a willful act of commission or act ofomission by the child's parents, and care isrequested by a parent; 4) is in need oftreatment and whose parents, guardian, orother custodian have refused to participate intreatment as ordered by the juvenile court; 5)was subject to prenatal exposure to chronicand severe use of alcohol or any controlledsubstance in a manner not lawfullyprescribed by a practitioner; 6) is present inan environment subjecting the child toexposure to a controlled substance or drugparaphernalia.

Definitions for sexual abuse areavailable in the North Dakota Century Codechapter 12.1-20 at http://www.state.nd.us/lr/cencode/t121.html.

The North Dakota Century Code mandatescertain persons (those who have contactwith children as a part of their professionalduties) to report incidents of suspected childabuse or neglect. Any person may report anincident. The NDDHS or its designatedagent, a regional or county Child ProtectiveServices (CPS) social worker, will respond tothe report by conducting an assessment ofthe family being reported. This process

allows for the assessment of present safetyto the child(ren) and the risk of futuremaltreatment, while simultaneously notingfamily strengths and needs. These strengthsalong with any necessary serviceinterventions may lead to the amelioration ofchild maltreatment within a particular family.The CPS social workers use a riskassessment tool to help direct theintervention and assessment process. CPSteams determine if: 1) services are required;or 2) services are recommended; or 3) noservices are required or recommended. Ifservices are required, a high level of risk isdetermined to exist for the child(ren), and/orthe family's needs are such that immediateservice is required in order to lessen thesafety risk. When it is determined thatservices are required, North Dakota CenturyCode requires a referral to Juvenile Courtand a social worker (case manager) must beassigned to coordinate services. If servicesare recommended, but not required, a low tointermediate risk level is determined to existfor the child(ren) and/or the family hasservice needs, but court action will not berequested at the time of the decision. If noservices are required or recommended, it hasbeen determined that: 1) no to low risk forthe child(ren) exists; and/or 2) the CPS teamsuggests a discussion with the family on theavailability of services, which are unrelatedto any specific risk factors; or 3) the family'sservice need is nonexistent.
