Provide additional information about this indicator (optional)

Based on data from the 2014-2015 Compliance 618 Child Count Data, Illinois reported 20,926 children birth to 3 with active IFSPs, equal to a 4.45% participation rate. This represents an increase of 0.22% from data reported for FFY13/SFY14 and exceeds the FFY14/SFY15 target of 3.65%. Illinois 4.45% participation rate also exceeds the FFY14/SFY15 National Percentage of 2.95% (350,581/11,868,245).

The attached chart provides statewide, regional, and CFC office participation rate histories. The participation rates are based on October 31, 2014 Child Count Data, and on the 2014 census estimates for the population of infants and toddlers birth to 3. The current census data is only available by county. For the seven Cook County CFC offices, census data cannot be sorted by demographic area (zip code), therefore data for those entities are combined.
