The annual Children’s Agenda is only as strong as the data that informs it.

As the coalition leader for the 135+ child-focused Oregon organizations, our role is to ensure every partner has the trusted, current data they need to drive policy change in Salem. 

The integrity of our KIDS COUNT data is what unites and directs this powerful, unified voice.

To fortify that foundation, we’re undertaking a comprehensive Data Equity Project at OCO. In this video series, our Data & Research Manager, Jenna Marie, explains how we’re building a more robust and equitable data infrastructure. 

Supported by the Annie E. Casey Foundation and the Odyssey Alliance, this initiative will result in formal data equity guidelines and improved practices, ensuring the information guiding our coalition’s priorities truly reflects the needs of every community across Oregon.
