Youth Indicators Poll
United Ways in Massachusetts invite you to participate in this poll to help us understand what you think are the most critical needs facing youth across the Commonwealth.
The results will inform and guide the work of the Statewide Action Planning Team. In the next few months, this team will develop an Action Agenda designed to improve outcomes for youth.
What has informed this poll?
The development of this poll was informed by many different sources, such as the recent "Child Poverty in Massachusetts: A Tale of Two States" from Massachusetts Kids Count, the Youth Risk Behavior Survey, the Department of Public Health's "A Shared Vision for Youth and Young Adults" report, and numerous state agency databases. The statewide agenda for youth is intended to inform and support the planned "Commonwealth Child and Youth Readiness Cabinet," an inter-governmental agency cabinet, chaired by the Secretaries of Education and Health and Human Services.
Want to get more involved?
