  • National Center for Children in Poverty's (NCCP) purpose is to identify and promote strategies that prevent child poverty in the United States and to improve the lives of low income children and their families. NCCP places special emphasis on preventing or alleviating poverty among children under age six because young child poverty poses particularly serious risks to children’s healthy growth and development.
  • Welfare Information Network is a foundation funded project to help states and communities obtain the information, policy analysis, and technical assistance they need to develop and implement welfare reforms that will reduce dependency and promote the well-being of children and families.
