In Our Backyard How 3 L.A. Neighborhoods Affect Kids' Lives

Abstract

This book is intended for a general audience interested in learning more about the subtle interaction between children's well-being and the neighborhoods in which they grow up. The book should also be of interest to community groups, health services agencies, and other groups that want to support children by improving their environment. Our discussion is based on information drawn form the Focused Study of Children and Neighborhoods (FSCN), a survey of three neighborhoods in Los Angeles in 1998.
