This effort will potentially benefit up to 50,000 youth.
In another crucial investment, the Arkansas Children’s Foundation will receive 0,000 to provide additional support services to teen mothers and their children. This comprehensive approach includes access to food, housing, transportation, and social support to ensure the best possible outcomes for these families.
Moreover, ASU Mid-South Community College will receive ,000 to improve the health and educational outcomes of postpartum mothers and their children in Crittenden County. This targeted intervention will make a meaningful difference in the lives of these vulnerable community members.
The Blue & You Foundation’s investments in pediatric health programs demonstrate its dedication to fostering a healthier future for Arkansas’s youth. By supporting these vital initiatives, the Foundation is working towards a comprehensive healthcare system that cares for the state’s most precious resource – its children.
