  24. What’s next with the Index? • First year, room to evolve • Make the Index an annual Florida KIDS COUNT data product

  25. Why do I need data? • Seek new funding (grants & contracts) or hold on to existing funding • Advocate with legislature, county commission, municipal government, etc • Prepare to talk to media

  26. So how do I get those data? Data products Floridakidscount.org Topics include state and county child and family characteristics as well as special topical publications on insurance, parental incarceration, and more Visit the KIDS COUNT Data Center at http://datacenter.kidscount.org/

  28. Why don’t I just get them myself? • These data sources are all in one place by different geographic levels (national, state, county, congressional district)

  29. What else? • You can ask KIDS COUNT things like • Can you get me those data for my county? • Can you update that with the latest data? • What else is out there that describes poverty in my community? (e.g., the United Way’s ALICE report at http://www.uwof.org/alice)
