Child
Well-Being and
Welfare Module
Texas
Minnesota
Brief
Summary
With questions drawn from numerous national surveys,
this module investigates the association between public assistance program
participation and factors that may relate to child well-being (e.g., health care
coverage, reliable child care, safe neighborhoods, and parental employment). In 1998 and 1999, this module was pilot-tested in a random sample of
low-income families in Texas. Also, it included a special Medicaid
sample obtained from administrative data in Texas and Minnesota.
