United Way of Jackson County believes people are connected and interdependent. When they reach out a hand to one, we influence the condition of all. They all win when a child forms healthy attachments through a loving family, when they succeed in school, graduate and make a successful transition to adult responsibilities. They all win when families are financially stable, when people have good health, and when people are engaged and connected.

This belief forms the foundation for their strategies for education, income, health and transportation.
