National and State Level Statistics on Child Health and Well-Being
There are many sources of data on Wisconsin
kids, their health, and local circumstances which impact their well-being. The Office of Children's Mental Health (OCMH) often references these sources when creating our Annual Report, Child Well-Being Indicators Dashboard, and Fact Sheets.
1. YRBS: Youth Risk Behavior Survey (national, state, regional, and county data available)

2. NSCH: National Survey of Children's Health (national,
state trend data
and interactive maps)

3. KIDS COUNT (data by location or topic available)

4. County Health Rankings & Roadmaps (data by location or topic available)

5. State Agency Partners: DCF, DHS, DPI, and OSS

Additionally — while not an exhaustive list — the following sources are definitive and provide key data on important trends impacting youth well-being.
