Opioid Epidemic and Children in Foster Care
Our project focuses on the relatedness between children in foster care and opioid abuse by counties located on the NC coast. We are displaying this correlation via an interactive map with layers of data regarding populations of children in foster and opioid overdose ER visits. We are also incorporating data visualizations such as graphs to further present our data in different ways to the audience. Lastly, we will be including tangible place-marks per county that align with our intended goal of reaching out to those who struggle with opioid abuse.
