Detroit Kids Data

D3 houses, operates, and updates DetroitKidsData.org (DKD), a highly interactive website that offers data about the welfare of children and families in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb Counties, and the City of Detroit.  From the zip code level to the county level, visitors can compare local data across the region.

D3 is pleased to have been selected by Dr. Paul Giblin and the Helppie Institute for Child Health Advocacy at Children’s Hospital of Michigan to perform data processing, analysis, and website administration for DetroitKidsData.org.  The website provides important community health information for community members and public health service providers.  The profiles produced on the site can be used by many different individuals, groups and organizations to learn something new, make decisions, or solve problems related to their community’s health.
