I learned about S.O.N. Foundation through a job fair I went to in Genesee County. From then on, I was inspired to get involved to support.
HOW YOU CAN HELP
100% of your donation goes directly to our programs and is monitored by rigorous evaluation to ensure it is making a difference.
STRATEGIES FOR CHILDREN
Any effective strategy for children must recognize and address the challenges confronting their parents, along with the broader array of community factors and service systems that affect children directly and their parents’ ability to support them. And because children’s health and development are shaped by many factors, outcomes in one area (such as nutrition or school readiness) are affected by actions in other areas (such as work supports or community violence prevention). Solutions require looking beyond narrow definitions of children’s issues and cutting through conventional policy boundaries to find the most cost-effective ways to deploy public resources as part of a coordinated strategy.
