Measures of Connecticut children’s health and education improved during the past decade, but measures of economic security and family and community strength declined, according to the latest Kids Count report released by the Connecticut Association for Human Services and the Annie E. Casey Foundation. Kids improved in reading and math proficiency and graduation rates and childhood death and substance abuse declined. But more children lived in poverty or with single parents or those whose jobs were insecure.
