2017 STATUS OF OREGON CHILDREN AND FAMILIES4

C hildren First for Oregon is committed to building an Oregon where every child can thrive. Data is at the core of the work we do to achieve that vision. Our analyses

provide child advocates and decision-makers with reliable data to better serve their communities and enrich discussions about child well-being across different regions and demographics. Our data-driven policy recommendations spur legislators and public officials to back systemic solutions.

The 2017 County Data Book: Status of Oregon Children and Families compiles data on how kids across the state are faring on a broad range of indicators, such as health, education, and economic security. Each indicator reveals where Oregon is meeting the needs of our next generation or identifies areas for improvement. In addition to providing data across these indicators for each Oregon county, this year’s report outlines three troubling trends in Oregon: persistent food insecurity, a shortage of mental health services, and low rates of early education enrollment.

While Oregon is reported to be the picture of economic health, the economy has a long way to go to ensure all kids’ critical needs are met. Rates of food insecurity in Oregon have been increasing while the percentage of families experiencing food insecurity declined across the United States. Mental

Introduction

health issues are widespread: compared to children across the nation, Oregon youth are more likely to commit suicide or be hospitalized for self-harm. Oregon lags behind dozens of states that enroll far more children in early childhood education programs. These trends combined with high housing costs, high child care costs, and a lack of living wage jobs mean that too few children in Oregon are getting the chance they deserve to grow up healthy, safe, economically secure, and educated.

While the barriers preventing all children in Oregon from reaching their full potential are stark, the data presented in this report provide an opportunity to pivot toward solutions. Through substantial public and private partnerships, along with local and state government investments, we can propel children in Oregon to a bright future filled with self-sufficiency, success, and positive contributions to their communities. By working together, we can build an Oregon where all children thrive. ■

C hildren who are raised in food secure households demonstrate better mental, physical, and social health outcomes.1 However, in Oregon, thousands of

young Oregonians grow up in food insecure households. To attain food security a household must meet a number of other measures of economic security.2 When rent jumps, wages get cut, or child care becomes prohibitively expensive, rates of food insecurity rise.

The impacts of food insecurity on a household are felt throughout the entire family: 16.6 percent of couples with children in Oregon in 2013-2015 experienced food insecurity,3 and 44.1% of single mothers experienced food insecurity — a rate more than ten percentage points higher than the U.S.

average.4 Reducing food insecurity among children requires decreasing food insecurity among adults, as the causes of hunger are deeply rooted in the economic security of families.

Factors Contributing to Food InsecurityAs the cost of housing continues to outpace wages, food insecurity has impacted a larger number of Oregon families. Without access to affordable housing, more families find themselves choosing between paying rent and putting food on the table. Families living in affordable housing spend $151 more on food per month than families with extreme housing cost burdens.5

Skyrocketing child care costs impose a financial strain on families throughout the financial spectrum. For those already struggling with rent, the effects of increasing child care costs are particularly acute and result in households becoming food insecure. For many families, high child care costs lead directly to food insecurity. The severe financial burden that child care poses for families has spiked since the 1990s: from 1994 to 2014, the monthly cost for center-based care for a toddler in

Oregon increased by 121 percent, more than twice the rate of inflation.6 On an annual basis, for a household making under $60,000 a year, child care for two toddlers can surpass $20,000 — a third of a family’s income.7 This leaves a smaller amount of the household budget for nutritious food.

Disparity Across Oregon Counties Residents in several rural counties and specific urban areas struggle to achieve food security. A contributing factor for food insecurity is similar for these distinct communities: geography. In both rural and highly urban areas, supermarkets — among the best sources for affordable food — are increasingly hard to access for low-income households. This barrier to food security, when combined with higher costs of living and/or lower incomes, hinders the well-being of families in counties as diverse as Multnomah and Josephine.

Burgeoning housing prices and rents drive families from living in communities with grocery stores nearby, thereby limiting the amount of affordable, nutritious food available and further exposing a family to the negative impacts of untenable food prices. Rents push families into food deserts

For many families, high child care costs lead directly to food insecurity.

FOOD INSECURITY


— low-income areas with limited access to grocery stores. Fourteen of Portland’s 24 high-poverty census tracts had low or very low levels of supermarket access.8, 9 Families in low-income areas are simultaneously exposed to low access and high costs: monthly food costs can exceed $1,000 for a family of four in Multnomah County, assuming a family of two adults and two children.10 As a consequence of the high costs, in 2015, 21.9 percent of the county’s children lived in food insecure households.

Rural Oregon counties have experienced a slower economic recovery than the rest of the state since 2008. According to a 2017 report issued by the State of Oregon Employment Department, “After seven years of uneven economic recovery, 17 out of Oregon’s 23 rural counties remain below peak employment.”11 As counties languish on key economic indicators, food insecurity has remained a challenge.

Programs Addressing Food Insecurity Federal and state programs aim to reverse food insecurity among economically insecure populations. Thousands of Oregon families and their children depend on these programs to get through difficult times.

The Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)WIC assists young families by providing them with nutrition education and resources. The program served nearly 104,000 children and infants in 2016. Their mothers, in both urban and rural areas, benefit as well. Fifty-two percent of pregnant moms residing outside of Oregon’s metro areas used WIC in 2016.12 But, the program has reached fewer families recently. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, WIC participation has declined 17 percent in Oregon since 2012, 18,800 fewer mothers, infants, and children benefitted from the program in 2016 than four years earlier.13

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)Thirty-one percent of Oregon kids were enrolled in SNAP in 2015; 270,000 children and their families used the program to help them meet their food needs and reduce their cost of living. Without SNAP, food insecurity rates would almost assuredly climb; in 2015, over 57 percent of SNAP recipients in Oregon were families with children, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. ■

A healthy child is both physically and mentally well.

When physical or mental health declines, a child’s ability to reach their full potential similarly suffers on

many fronts. Poor mental health, in particular, hinders a child’s performance in the classroom and community, and, years later, in their career.

Academically, the costs of insufficient mental health care are long lasting: students combatting mental health issues, on average, attend school less frequently, have trouble concentrating, and earn lower scores. They also tend to graduate high school at a lower rate, which leads to even lower rates of post-secondary education attendance.14

Societally, untreated mental illness leads to higher rates of interaction with the juvenile justice system. Seven out of ten youth in state and local juvenile justice systems reported mental disorders.15 Professionally, a person’s success in the workforce hinges on mental development throughout childhood and adolescence. Mental illness can stifle a youth’s development of critical personal competencies such as self-reliance, interpersonal reliability, and responsibility.16

Teen Mental Health in Oregon and the U.S.While mental health is difficult to measure, indicators including teen suicide17 and violent death rates help to demonstrate that Oregon’s young people are not receiving the supports they need to be mentally well. Compared to children across the nation, Oregon youth are more likely to commit suicide or to be hospitalized for self-harm. From 2006 to 2015, suicide doubled as a percentage of total teen deaths (ages 15 to 19 years old) in Oregon. In 2013, 38.3 percent of teen deaths were suicides, making it the number one cause of death.18 While the rate of suicide among U.S. youth aged 10-24 years hardly budged from 2010 to 2013, the rate in Oregon spiked by over 41 percent in the same time frame.

Nearly 700 youth in Oregon were hospitalized because of a suicide attempt in 2015.19 More than two-thirds of youth involved in suicide incidences in Oregon from 2002 to 2012 cited mental health problems before the event. Over a third had a diagnosed mental disorder. Youth that identify as LGBTQ are also disproportionately impacted by mental illness and suicide compared to their heterosexual classmates. According to data

Mental Health & Child Well-Being

MENTAL HEALTH & CHILD WELL-BEING


from 2012, teens that identify with the LGBTQ community are five times more likely to attempt suicide.20

Unaddressed Needs: Poor Teen Mental Health Services in Oregon Mental health concerns in children and adolescents regularly go untreated and unreported. Nationwide, about 11 percent of youth have been diagnosed with a mental illness; however, according to the U.S. Surgeon General, two-thirds of youth who have a mental health illness go unidentified and do not receive the requisite services.21

Several rural counties — Klamath, Coos, and Baker — had disproportionate rates of suicide death compared to their respective child population. Each of these counties had a rate of suicide death at least three times higher than the state average.23

In 2014, 135 youths in Multnomah County were hospitalized due to self-harm or suicide; Washington and Lane counties had 76 and 57 such incidences, respectively. These same three counties account for over 40 percent of the total youth deaths from suicide in Oregon in 2014.24

How Access to Care Impacts Mental Well-beingDespite the clear need to increase access to health care in order to adequately diagnose and treat mental illness and other suicide risk factors, many children in Oregon are uninsured. Youth ages 0- to 17-years old in rural Oregon counties are disproportionately impacted by a lack of health insurance. Whereas more populous counties like Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas, and Lane have child health insurance rates above or near 96 percent, the average of the remaining counties is closer to 93 percent.25

Uninsured rates vary along racial and ethnic groups as well, further indicating the need for equitable, universal coverage. For instance, children that identify as American Indian in Oregon were three times more likely to report lacking insurance in 2015 than those who identified as Non-Hispanic White.1 Ensuring that all children throughout the state have access to health care coverage is key to improving mental health outcomes for Oregon’s youngest residents.

Even traditional mental health resources may be absent in some counties. According to facility information from the Oregon Health Authority, eight counties lacked any licensed mental health facilities in 2015, putting children in these parts of the state at higher risk of mental health concerns, suicide, and self-harm.26

Medicaid’s Role in Expanding AccessNo program pays for more mental health services in Oregon than Medicaid.27 Forty-two percent of all Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) enrollees in Oregon are children, which makes the program fundamental to the mental well-being of Oregon youth.28 Medicaid covers over 450,000 low-income children in Oregon with an additional 141,000 children benefiting from CHIP coverage.29

Oregon has implemented a number of innovative practices that make Medicaid dollars even more important to improving mental health. For example, the state created an “at-risk” code that allows Oregon children to receive mental health services covered by Medicaid before they are formally diagnosed with a disorder or experience a mental health emergency.30 This effort is complemented by state support for educational programs that teach parents how to respond to challenging child behav-ior. Only 11 other states provided similar education programs.31

Programs Addressing Mental Health in OregonA wide range of health programs dedicate resources to the mental well-being of Oregon kids. Two of those critical resources are outlined below.

Oregon Psychiatric Access Line for Kids (OPAL-K)Many children and adolescents in Oregon with mental health issues remain untreated or experience significant delays before beginning treatment. OPAL-K provides phone consultation regarding child psychiatric care to primary care providers in Oregon. With OPAL-K, medical practitioners may be able to treat youth with mental health issues right away rather than placing patients on waiting lists to receive care. OPAL-K receives, on average, eight calls a day and has handled upwards of 1,000 calls since it started in May of 2014.32

School-Based Health Centers (SBHCs) School-Based Health Centers (SBHCs) fill a hole in mental health services in many Oregon communities yet the locations of SBHCs demonstrate the limited reach of some services for Oregon’s youth. The majority of SBHC users are Medicaid recipients and dozens of the centers predominantly serve students of color and low-income communities.33 Yet, one-third of Oregon counties did not have a SBHC in 2016, with only 77 certified SBHCs across the state. In the 2015-2016 service year, there were 111,420 visits to SBHCs by youth ages 5 to 21 years old. More than a third of those visits were behavioral health-related.34 In addition to SBHCs, it is helpful to students and the community when schools are adequately staffed with school nurses and school counselors. ■

School-Based Health Centers were in 24 of 36 counties in 2016.

E qual access to early education is paramount to providing all Oregonians with equal opportunities to thrive. The long-term benefits of early education are substantial

and well-documented at the community and individual levels. Investing in education is associated with widespread economic benefits. For example, economic analysis of Chicago’s Child-Parent Centers early education providers, evidenced returns of 7:1, benefits to dollars invested.35

At the individual level, early education prepares students for success at each stage of their academic and professional development. By 3rd and 4th grades, students from low-income households that attended early education programming record higher math and reading scores.36 The gains persist through middle school and high school. Longitudinal studies conducted in Illinois revealed that students with access to preschool had a high school graduation rate ten percent higher than those without the same early education opportunities.37

Oregon’s Late Start to Early EducationWhile Oregon has increased investments in early learning, the state has missed opportunities to fully realize the benefits of early education. For over a decade, under half of Oregon young children have attended early education programs. In the 2015-16 school year, 41 percent of Oregon’s young children that qualified for state pre-kindergarten programs were not served.38 When Oregon’s three- and four-year-olds turn five,

Early Education Enrollment in Oregon

the majority of them will already have spent less time in the classroom than the average U.S. young child.39 28 states and the District of Columbia outpaced Oregon in enrolling young children in school in 2013-2015.40 Oregon lags behind states with higher preschool participation rates in outcomes, which include higher test scores, diminished behavioral issues, and greater educational attainment among their students.41

High-risk and low-income children reap the biggest benefits from enrollment in early education programs, which can significantly reduce disparities that typically develop later in life.42 Adults from resource-sparse childhoods that attended high-quality early education programs have higher employment rates, less interaction with the criminal justice system, and rely less on welfare systems.43 Yet, due to chronic underfunding of early childhood programs, these benefits often go unrealized in Oregon.

Different Starts for Different KidsAcross the nation, as well as within Oregon, participation in early education programs varies by race and ethnicity. Data collected from 2011 to 2015 indicated fewer Hispanic or Latino young children in Oregon were enrolled in early education compared to Non-Hispanic White preschoolers, a difference of eight percentage points.44 Such disparities do not bode well for efforts to close the achievement gap, which is defined as the disparity in academic performance that occur along socioeconomic, racial/ethnic, and gender lines. Research suggests that achievement gaps evident in early grades may not close and, in some cases, may expand as the cohort of students progresses in their schooling.45

points separates the county with the highest young child enrollment rate and the county with the lowest. Sherman County, an outlier in the state, enrolls close to 70 percent of its young children in early education programs. Comparatively, fewer than a third of children in 12 counties have the same opportunity to start their education early.46 Due to the limited geographic scope of Oregon’s Preschool Promise and pre-kindergarten programs, over 21,000 3- and 4-year olds living in poverty in Oregon lack access to the state’s early education programs.47 Rural children are acutely affected, with the state’s Preschool Promise program only serving children in 17 of the state’s 36 counties in its inaugural year.48

The impact of a lack of access to early education extends far beyond the earliest years of a child’s life. The difference in high school and higher education outcomes is particularly evident when analyzing academic achievement in urban and rural counties. The top five highest-achieving counties had an average graduation rate upward of 88 percent in 2015-2016, almost 16 percentage points higher than the average for the remaining 26 counties.49 Among high school graduates, non-rural students in Oregon are 14 percent more likely to enroll in post-secondary education than rural students.50 These disparate levels of access and success continue at higher education institutions: rural Oregonians are 19 percent less likely to persist to the second year of higher education than their non-rural neighbors.51 As the value of a higher education continues to grow, starkly different opportunities will further separate outcomes for urban and rural individuals and counties.

Programs Addressing Early Childhood and Education in OregonA variety of public, private, and nonprofit programs help Oregon children attain a strong academic start. They empower parents, primary care providers, and educational professionals to promote the educational success of children. Some of these programs are listed below.

Reach Out and Read Reach Out and Read serves 76,295 kids across the state on an annual basis, and additionally distributes more than 140,000 books.52 Working with pediatricians and nurse practitioners, the program encourages parents to read aloud daily to their infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, as a way to foster nurturing, language-rich family interactions. The program begins at the 6-month checkup and continues through age 5.

Families served by Reach Out and Read read together more often, and children enter kindergarten with larger vocabularies and stronger language skills.

Start Making a Reader Today (SMART)SMART links almost 10,000 students in Oregon with a network of 5,000 reading volunteers. Over 95 percent of SMART students in 2015-2016 recorded improvement on measures of literacy development. Founded in 1992, SMART engages community volunteers across Oregon to read one-on-one with Pre-Kindergarten through third-grade children for one hour per week during the school year. SMART students also receive up to 14 new books to take home and keep each year.

Preschool PromisePreschool Promise provides high-quality, local, and culturally-relevant early child care and education programs for low-income children. Early Learning Hubs located around Oregon oversee the providers.

Head Start and Oregon Pre-KindergartenHead Start and Oregon Pre-Kindergarten programs provide low-income 3- and 4-year olds with free preschool programs. In addition, these students receive nutritious meals, regular medical screenings, and home visits from teachers and family advocates. Demand for the program currently exceeds the supply of open student seats.53 ■
