About Us

We work with you to make Texas a place that puts kids first.
  
We help shape public policies and bring Texans together to make children a statewide priority. We work so kids can have what they need to be healthy, secure, and thriving and so every Texan can have the best start to life. A nonpartisan child advocacy organization founded in 1985, we're home-grown in Texas and work to provide:
  • a voice for Texas children, through our advocacy, policy work, and public outreach campaigns;
  • a source on Texas children, with information, research, and more on children's issues; and
  • a network for people who put children first in communities throughout Texas.
Our mission is to improve the lives of Texas children by building commitment and action for improved public policy and programs in the areas of child and maternal health, child protection, child mental wellbeing, juvenile justice, and family financial security. We are a member of the national network, Voices for America's Children.
