SUMMARY:

 

Acceptance of the 29th Annual Report on the Conditions of Children in Orange County provides a unified voice that champions health, education, safety and economic stability to meet the needs of all children and families in Orange County.

 

 

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

 

The Social Services Agency (SSA), through the Children and Families Commission of Orange County (CFCOC), sponsored the production and distribution of the 29th edition of the Annual Report on the Conditions of Children in Orange County.

 

The purpose of the Annual Report is to provide a comprehensive picture of the conditions of children in Orange County, to assess progress and identify potential problem areas that can be focused on for improvement. SSA in partnership with CFCOC oversees the gathering and distribution of information on children in Orange County, including dependents and wards of the juvenile court and behaviorally disturbed children; identifies gaps in the service system for high-risk children and their families; and recommends collaborative programs to better serve this population. The first Annual Report was issued in 1993 and it remains a valuable tool for SSA and other County agencies to track trends in children’s issues in the County.

 

On December 6, 2022, the Board received and filed the 28th Annual Report on the Conditions of Children in Orange County.
