Details:
This mission will help drive positive outcomes for children’s health and help set a stronger foundation for a lifetime of wellness. The Foundation also promotes protective and compensatory childhood experiences which can counteract the effects of ACEs.
Grants are made based on three pillars:
- Empowered families: Working to ensure families have the resources they need to thrive
- Families with secure employment, stable housing, safe communities, and quality education are best positioned to nurture healthy children.
- Healing behaviors: Working to ensure families can meet challenges and build well-being
- Families with consistent access to behavioral health resources are better able to provide safe, stable, and caring environments for children.
- Access to health care: Working to ensure families receive equitable, high-quality health services
- Families and expectant mothers with reliable access to culturally responsive providers, including services in their preferred language, can more readily support healthy development and increase PACEs.
