	A division of the Social Science Research Center at Mississippi State University, the Family and Children Research Unit (FCRU) conducts research on issues affecting the health, safety, education, and well-being of children and families.

The FCRU is the home of MS KIDS COUNT. Mississippi KIDS COUNT is the leading resource for comprehensive information on Mississippi's children and serves as a catalyst for improving outcomes for children, families, and communities. The program publishes a yearly Data Book on the status of Mississippi’s children. It is funded, in part, by the Annie E. Casey Foundation.
