For Grandparents and Special Others Raising Children ARIZONA Grandparents and Other Relatives Raising Children A State Fact Sheet August 2002 Across the country, more than six million children approximately 1 in 12 children are living in households headed by grandparents or other relatives. Arizona has more than 62,000 children living in households headed by grandparents or other relatives. In many of these households, grandparents and other relatives are the primary caregivers (“kinship caregivers”) for children whose parents cannot or will not care for them due to substance abuse, illness and death, abuse and neglect, economic hardship, incarceration, divorce, domestic violence, and other family and community crises. In response to the growing numbers of these kinship care families, state legislatures, public and private agencies, and grassroots coalitions in Arizona and across the country have begun to expand services and supports for children living with kin inside and outside of the foster care system. A Look at the Numbers: Kinship Care in Arizona The data below show the numbers of grandparents who are living in households with at least one grandchild under the age of 18, as well as the numbers of grandparents who are the primary caregivers for these grandchildren. These numbers were reported by the 2000 U.S. Census and are available for every place (as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau) in the country, including cities, towns, villages, and boroughs, on the U.S. Census website.*

/* You may give each page an identifying name, server, and channel on the next lines. */ var pageName = ""; /**** DO NOT ALTER ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE! ****/ var code = ' '; Resources For Welfare Decisions Vol. 5, No. 10 October 2001 Resources for Improving Mental Health Services for Low-Income Children Background According to a report by the Surgeon General, many children have mental health problems that interfere with normal development and functioning. In the United States, one in ten children and adolescents suffer from mental illness severe enough to cause some level of impairment in functioning at home, in school, or in the community. Lack of parity for mental health services is a problem for all insured individuals, including children. Early intervention is crucial for all children with mental health needs. Research has shown that behavioral and emotional problems are more prevalent among poor children than non-poor children. This may be due to multiple policy and practice issues, including access to services, lack of health insurance, mental health system capacity, misdiagnosis, and parents’ own mental health issues.
