Story Behind the Curve
Possible reasons for the data plateauing:
- Blessings in a backpack; strong food pantries;
Concerns:
- Do we know that this means kids are actually hungry? No data around "hunger".
- What was the data collection in 2005/early days? Doing better about collecting data so more is collected?
- This tracks pretty close to children living in poverty.
- Only tracks children in public school.

Data Discussion
The percent of families who experience a lack of access, at times, to enough food for an active, healthy life for all household members; limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate foods.
Note: This indicator does not necessarily reflect hunger; consider finding a better measure in Frederick County?
