Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Child Day Care, Children & Youth
Mission: Valued kids provides daycare services for children in a safe, loving, nurturing environment where each child's specific needs are met and each child has the opporturnity to grow at their own level. Valued kids supports the community and serves the general public without discrimination. Valued kids welcomes special needs children along with low- income and dshs families. In addition, valued kids donates child care services to families in need.
Programs: Valued kids provided daycare services for general public in the community during 2016. The majority of the children came from low-income households. More than 80% of valued kids income came from dshs subsidies and usda food program subsidies. Valued kids participated in the usda meal program and provided nutrious meals and snacks to many low income children. In addition, in 2016, valued kids was able to support many families in need. We referred several families for special needs services and helped children to meet and exceed their developmental goals. We were able to serve multiple homeless families from the job search and living in shelters through solid employment and moving into their own homes. We have served families with active duty military personnel and helped them to be able to spend the time needed on the base to complete things required of them. We have been able to support a family through medical crisis and be able to be the stability needed as a parent had to leave immediately. We serve many single parent families, and have provided free care hours for job interviews. In addition we provided care for 20 children in the foster care system.
