Children in rural areas face particular risks to their health and
well-being. Some risks relate to their demographic characteristics;
rural children are more likely to live in poverty than those in
urban areas. Some relate to their physical environment; the risks
of injury and of death from injury are greater among rural
children. Since 2003, the National Survey of Children' Health
(NSCH) has presented in-depth National and State-level data on the
health and well-being of children in their families and
communities. The survey provides a snapshot of children's physical,
mental, and developmental health status; access to health care;
activities at school, outside of school, and at home; and their
safety and security in their neighborhoods and at school. The NSCH,
supported and developed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services, Health Resources and Services Administration's Maternal
and Child Health Bureau and conducted by the National Center for
Health Statistics of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, is the only nationally-representative survey that
considers children's health and well-being within the contexts of
the family and community. This book presents indicators of the
health and well-being of children, the supportive and risk factors
in the family environment, and aspects of the neighborhood that may
support or threaten families and children.
