Case Study: Statistics can provide valuable insight into the world around us and with this we can use this data to make an impact on these outcomes. For this report, you will investigate a social justice issue and report on the data surrounding these issues. What is social justice? Social justice as defined by the United Nationals Economic and Social Affairs Division defines it as "justice in terms of the distribution of wealth, opportunities and privileges within a society." An example of this is: According to the CDC, 17% of children (2-5 years) from low-income households have untreated cavities in their primary teeth, 3 times the percentage of children from higher income households. Social justice issues may highlight the disparities influencing this data. What is causing this disparity? Are the disparities due to socioeconomic differences or educational differences? With this data, what can we do to change these outcomes? If the increase in caries rates is due to level of oral education, we can develop programs to improve the education rates in these populations.
