The Coalition for Kids Fund was established in 2020 to support programs that strengthen protective factors in families and our community, and that increase health outcomes from positive experiences for children in their earliest years of life (prenatal through age 5). Each year local community-based organizations serving young children in Josephine County—ages birth through 5— are eligible to submit grant applications which are then reviewed by the C4K Fund Advisory Committee.
