		KIDS COUNT is a national and state-by-state effort to document the condition of children and families and to highlight the most promising ways of helping kids grow up to be healthy, productive adults. Since 1990, KIDS COUNT has been the cornerstone of the Annie E. Casey Foundation’s effort to raise public awareness of children’s issues and to promote public accountability for improving outcomes for vulnerable children and families. In New Hampshire the KIDS COUNT project is based at the Children’s Alliance of New Hampshire. The Children’s Alliance is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, multi-issue child advocacy organization focusing its efforts on targeting NH needs, through research and analysis; promoting public policy solutions through our NH Child Advocacy Network and direct advocacy; and fostering an engaged community through building public will through education and outreach; and inspiring and enabling community action.
