LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - Kentucky Youth Advocates released the 2025 Kentucky KIDS COUNT Data Dashboard today, featuring county-level data on child health, education, economic security and family measures across the Commonwealth.

The interactive dashboard includes state-level data broken down by race and ethnicity. This year’s dashboard replaces youth incarceration rates by county with data on children living in high-poverty neighborhoods.

“Now, more than ever, access to reliable data on child well-being is critical for equipping decision makers, media, and those caring professionals who serve children everyday with the tools to understand the scope of how kids are faring in their community,” said Dr. Terry Brooks, executive director of Kentucky Youth Advocates.
