Our Mission
Since 2005, the Alliance4Kids has been advocating for children and families across Oregon. As a coalition of organizations and individuals, we bring together expertise from state and local governments, human services, health care, and education to address the challenges facing young people and their families. Our mission is rooted in the belief that every child deserves a safe, supportive environment to thrive. To break the cycle of homelessness, we work to provide stable housing solutions and support systems that prevent families from falling into crisis.
By bolstering the behavioral health workforce, we aim to expand access to critical mental health services for youth, ensuring they have the resources to navigate challenging times. Additionally, we are committed to creating safe spaces for kids, whether in their homes, schools, or communities, with environments where they can learn, grow, and reach their full potential. Through collaboration, advocacy, and action, we strive to empower children and families, by paving the way for a brighter future for the next generation.
We Make a Difference!
Advocacy
Our team advocates for youth experiencing homelessness, those with behavioral health needs and in "residential" care. We want every child in Oregon to have access to the resources and opportunities they need to thrive.
Community Engagement
At the Alliance4Kids, we believe in the power of community engagement. We organize events and initiatives to raise awareness and foster a supportive environment for children and families in Oregon.
Policy Development
We actively help develop policies to help fund and change the systems that impact children and families. Our goal is to shape policies that prioritize the well-being and development of the younger generation, particularly those experiencing homelessness, behavioral health challenges and who are placed in "residential" care.
