"MUSKEGON, MI-- A new project examining key indicators of success among Michigan children suggests many Muskegon County families are struggling to have an enjoyable life and will continue to do so if lawmakers don't consider new policies.
The annual Kids Count in Michigan Data Book for 2015, released Thursday, Feb. 19 by the Michigan League for Public Policy advocacy group, placed the region at the No. 79 spot among 82 counties for overall child wellbeing.
Keweenaw County in the Upper Peninsula did not receive a ranking.
...Christine Robere, president of the United Way of the Lakeshore, which serves Muskegon, Newaygo and Oceana counties, said the poverty figure for the region was "astounding."
"We certainly have a lot of challenges and work to do in Muskegon County," Robere said. "As a whole, the community has been working so well together and there are so many resources aimed at linking people to education and employment opportunities.""
