Welcome to Partnership for Children

We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to focusing Greater Kansas City’s energy on enhancing life for children and youth.

By collecting and analyzing data on children in the metropolitan area, PFC pinpoints gaps in services and programs in critical areas of health, early childhood care, education, social and emotional well-being and safety and security.

Partnership for Children brings together community partners and coalitions to develop strategies and solutions to fill those gaps.

We further advocate for children to civic and political leadership and the community. PFC prods the community’s conscience to determine “Is it good for the children?” before public policy decisions are made.

We know that the time outside of legislative session is just as important as what happens during legislative session. To keep you informed, Partnership for Children produces a bi-weekly e-update from June to December called The Child Advocate Insider, with information regarding the latest developments on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., as well as important events and information from the Greater Kansas City area.
