Product Description
The Center for the Study of Children's Futures (CSCF), located at the
University of South Florida's Louis de la Parte Florida Mental Health Institute,
is dedicated to promoting the health and well-being of Florida's children
through data, research, analysis, and community involvement. The Florida KIDS
COUNT project is one of the activities in the Center.
CSCF serves to centralize research, public education, and outreach activities
benefiting the citizens of Florida. A variety of data and resource materials are
gathered throughout each year, including information on state and county level
data, data sources, and comparable information from other states and the nation.
Center efforts include:
maintaining a repository of statistical data;
the development of child well-being indicators;
providing technical assistance and consultation services;
linkage to comprehensive policy analysis; and,
research in program development.
The activities of the Center combine traditional research with the presentation
and dissemination of data and information for a wide range of audiences.
Technical assistance is provided on an ongoing basis. CSCF has helped to effect
policy by providing materials to state agency decision makers, inform public
debate and enhance the credibility of advocacy efforts.
