Did you know that services and supports for children, youth, and families comprise half of the city’s entire budget?  The District’s annual Children’s Budget Report lays out the array of investments for children and youth. 

The report also highlights the Gray Administration’s priorities. The administration is interested in making the most of the annual children's budget and we need your ideas! A confidential, online survey has been launched by the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services (DMHHS) and Office of the Deputy Mayor for Education (DME).  We invite you to take this short survey.

Before you start the survey, please take a look at two children's budgets and other annual budget documents.
