Note: The State TARs include a percent distribution of the counts associated with the circumstances\reasons why children enter care (“Circumstances Associated with Child’s Removal”). Although, the counts are correct the percent distributions are incorrect. We are in the process of addressing this error. In the interim the reader will need to calculate any needed percentages using the total number of entries as presented in the “entry” section of the TAR. The content of this data table are based on a “multiple response” approach therefore any summed up percentages may exceed 100%.
