Notes

Counts are unduplicated at county-level. A child may be counted twice in two different counties, if they were in cases managed by two counties during the year.
The statewide count is unduplicated across the state.

Hocking, Vinton, and Ross counties began reporting combined data under Ross County in 2014.  Totals for the three counties are estimated for each county based on percentages.

Defiance and Paulding counties began reporting combined data under Defiance County in 2015.  In certain years, totals for the two counties are reported under Defiance County.
