Investing in children is good business. Research shows and common sense tells us that children do well when their families do well and that families do well when their communities are strong. It’s no secret that healthy, safe and economically secure children set the stage for a vibrant community and a state that thrives in many ways. A strong workforce, solid infrastructure and society that is successful in recruiting and retaining businesses and corporations all depend on the future of our children. KIDS COUNT in Delaware works to highlight public policy tools to strengthen families and communities.
