FAMILIES COUNT

FAMILIES COUNT honors organizations that improve the odds for the most vulnerable children by giving them what they need most — strong, capable and economically successful families. The honorees embrace a simple but powerful principle: Children do well when their families do well, and families do better when they live in supportive communities.
