+==========State of the Family in Washington, DC==========
+The [[state_of_the_family_in_america|United States Family Belonging Index]] is 46 percent, with a corresponding Family Rejection Index of 54 percent, based on 2008-2012 data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey. The action of parents determines the Family Belonging or Rejection Index within a nation, region, [[state_of_the_family_across_the_states|state]], or [[state_of_the_family_by_race|racial or ethnic group]]—whether they marry and belong to each other, or whether they reject one another through divorce or other means. Rejection leaves children without married parents committed to one another and to their children.
+The Index of Family Belonging is determined by the fraction of children aged 15 to 17 in a given area who live with both their biological parents, who have been married since before or around the time of their birth.
+=====1. Index of Belonging=====
+The District of Columbia has a Family Belonging Index of 17 percent. In other words, 17 percent of D.C. teenagers aged 15 to 17 have lived with their always-married parents since their birth, whereas 83 percent of these adolescents were raised in a non-intact family. If Washington, D.C. were categorized as a state, it would rank last on the [[state_of_the_family_across_the_states|state ranking]] of the Index of Belonging and Rejection.((This entry draws heavily from original research found in [[http://marri.us/research/research-papers/index-of-belonging-and-rejection-state-by-state/|Index of Family Belonging and Rejection: State by State (2011)]], [[http://marri.us/research/research-papers/family-intactness-influence-on-major-state-social-policy-outcomes/|Family Intactness:  Influence on Major State Social Policy Outcomes]], and [[http://marri.us/family-demographics/family-intactness-and-public-policy-outcomes-by-state/|Family Intactness and Public Policy Outcomes by State]].))
