The 2023 Rhode Island KIDS COUNT Factbook is now available!


The Factbook provides a statistical portrait of the status of Rhode Island's children and families, incorporating the best available research and data. Information is presented for the state of Rhode Island, each city and town, and an aggregate of the four core cities (cities with the highest child poverty rates). The Factbook tracks the progress of 70 indicators, across five areas of child well-being. The Factbook allows us to assess how Rhode Island effectively supports children’s development and where we need to focus increased attention.
