We are the Center for Healthier Children, Families & Communities.
The Center for Healthier Children, Families & Communities understands what it takes for children to thrive and finds new, more innovative and effective ways to make that possible. For over 25 years, we’ve combined cutting-edge research, policy development, and community-based practices in new ways, to address the growing list of complex challenges that children and families face. By re-imagining what’s possible, and developing groundbreaking approaches that empower community leaders and partners, our collaborative approach catalyzes lasting, positive change for children and families.
