Introduction
This nonpartisan study by Children Now assigns letter grades to
the critical issues affecting children's well-being, such as a "D"
in obesity, a "D+" in K-12 education and a "B-" in health insurance.
Comprehensive data are presented on all key indicators of children's
well-being in terms of their health, education and economic security.
Overall, the report finds California is failing to meet children's
needs despite strong public will for children to be the top policy
priority.
Grades are based on the most recent data available, including the
2005 California County Data Book, Children Now's companion
research document.
