AL Baby Facts

Zero to Three recently released National and State Baby Facts to “provide information for early childhood professionals and policymakers about the status of infants, toddlers, and families in their state.” In Alabama’s factsheet we learn:

  • more than half (52%) of children ages zero to three in Alabama live in low-income families
  • 27% of children who are maltreated are younger than three years old
  • Early Intervention currently serves 1.67% of the population under age three
