Kern County saw 47 preventable child deaths in 2024, with drownings rising 200% due to poor supervision.
The 2024 Kern County Child Death Review Report revealed 47 preventable child deaths, with accidental injuries, homicides, and suicides as leading causes, including a 200% increase in drownings due to inadequate supervision.
Despite a downward trend in overall child fatalities and improvements in areas like safe sleep and motor vehicle safety, officials stress that no child death is acceptable and are urging expanded outreach on mental health, water safety, and early intervention.
The report calls for stronger collaboration among agencies and community efforts to address systemic gaps in child protection.
