Abstract:

The North Carolina Division of Health Services monitors and reports child deaths at regular intervals in hope that increased awareness will result in appropriate intervention. A special focus of this report is poor children, specifically, those whose families receive Aid to Families with Dependent Children. Data and analysis of child mortality are presented, and categorized by age and cause of death.
