We’re Mobilizing Kentuckians to Be the Voice for Kids
Kentuckians overwhelmingly support investing in our kids, ensuring they have a strong start in life.
Research shows the first five years of children’s lives are critically important for their development, making early childhood education and adequate nutrition vital.
Join us in laying the groundwork for Kentucky's future.

I grew up facing some of the same barriers children today are facing. I joined SCAN to fight for change for my son and for all Kentucky kids. I believe that together we can be the voice for our children. We can help them access the early childhood education they deserve, make sure they have reliable food sources, and give families peace of mind knowing their children won’t go to school or bed hungry. We can give parents the opportunity to afford child care so they, too, can make a difference. That’s why I’m fighting for real policy change. -- Volunteer Spotlight: Jersey, Family Engagement Volunteer
