And when we are successful keeping young people in school, we help fortify the community's skill base and enhance family cohesiveness.
Founded in 1990, PPC's core values are to be an independent, nonpartisan, research-based child advocacy organization. PPC concentrates on five issues that yield a strong return on investment for our children: health coverage; early childhood education; quality basic education; youth in transition to adulthood and family strengthening. PPC's strategies are: conducting research and analysis to develop credible, sound information and insight to drive public policy; using communication strategies to increase awareness of key constituencies; mobilize individuals and organizations to speak out for PA children's issues; and representing PA children's interests in Harrisburg and Washington through government relations.

Children's Foundation wants to enable each child to become a strong contributing member of our society.
