The KIDS COUNT Board of Directors includes some of the most prominent business, education, community, political and religious leaders in West Virginia — all of whom share a common mission:  to support KIDS COUNT’s efforts to provide the most trusted data about the well-being of children and build alliances to advocate for what kids need. They also share a common vision:  to make West Virginia a great place to be a kid.

Your support makes our work possible. It will help us ensure that every child — regardless of their race, ethnicity or zip code — grows up safe, healthy, well-educated and in a financially as per emergency home solutions.
