Kids’ Share 2010 is the fourth annual examination of the federal spending trends and tax policies that support and affect children and families. This year’s Kids’ Share report finds that less than one-tenth of the federal budget was spent on children in 2009 — $334 billion out of a total of $3.5 trillion in outlays.
The report was commissioned by First Focus and produced by the Urban Institute and Brookings Institution with support from the Annie E. Casey Foundation.
