New Jersey’s black, Hispanic, and mixed-race children are much more likely than Asian and white children to live in poverty, suffer poor health, struggle in school, and to become involved in the state’s child protection system, according to a new Kids Count 2015 report releasedMonday by Advocates for Children of New Jersey.

The annual report compiles statistics on key indicators of child well-being and ranks counties according to their performance. (Mulford/Courier Post)
