What about the Children? Government Assistance and Child Well-Being Measured by the Census Supplementary Survey for States and United States: 2001
What about the Children? Government Assistance and Child Well-Being Measured by the Census Supplementary Survey for States and United States: 2001
Presented at the Annual Meeting of the Population Association of America, Minneapolis, MN, May 1-3, 2003.
Supplementary Survey: 2001
The American Community Survey (ACS) has been designed to replace the long-form of the decennial census. As a component of the ACS program, the Supplementary Survey 2001 (SS01) was implemented to test the conceptual and operational feasibility of conducting the ACS nationally at the same time as the decennial Census.
Data for the SS01 were collected from a nation-wide sample of 700,000 households from November of 2000 to October of 2001. This poster is based on an analysis of national and state-level data; however, SS01 data is available for lower levels of geography such as counties and areas with populations of at least 250,000 persons.
SS01 Highlights:
- Large sample size allows for a more detailed analysis.
- Information is useful in the assessment of welfare reform legislation efforts on the needs and well-being outcomes for children.
- Information can be used to address the policy and programmatic needs for children living in specific geographic areas.
