About

Alaska Children's Trust (ACT) has operated as Alaska’s KIDS COUNT partner since 2016. Alaska Children's Trust is the statewide lead organization focused on the prevention of child abuse and neglect. Our mission focuses on primary, upstream prevention with the goal of ensuring children, youth, families, and communities have the knowledge, skills, supports, and resources they need to thrive. KIDS COUNT Alaska is part of the Annie E. Casey Foundation's KIDS COUNT Network and is part of ACT's advocacy portfolio. The mission of KIDS COUNT is to ensure child advocates, policymakers, and the public have access to high-quality, unbiased data about child well-being.
