Kentucky Child Now

Kentucky Child Now (KCN), founded in 2000, is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the welfare of children throughout the state of Kentucky. It is the Kentucky affiliate of America's Promise, an organization started by Colin Powell in 1997 for child welfare. The organization operates around the fundamental principle that youth need access to five resources for success: "1) caring adults; 2) safe places; 3) a healthy start; 4) marketable skills; and 5) opportunities to serve".
