Child Welfare

Children and youth who live in nurturing families and safe, supportive communities generally have stronger personal connections, higher educational achievement, and better mental health. Parents also need adequate resources to help foster their children’s development. Similarly, children and youth are more likely to thrive in neighborhoods with strong schools, support services, and opportunities for community engagement.
