In December, the PPC Board of Directors approved our 2025-26 Policy Roadmap that aligns with our organizational mission to improve the health, education, and well-being of children and youth in the commonwealth.
Ensuring each child living in Pennsylvania can reach their full potential means that PPC is committed to policy choices that improve maternal and child well-being, advance racial equity and support families disproportionately impacted by poverty.
Our work to advance equitable policy solutions and prioritize the well-being of Pennsylvania children and families remains as important as ever because we can’t achieve our goals if any child is left behind.
Learn more about our priorities in these five policy areas:
- Child Welfare: Ensure each child in Pennsylvania has the opportunity to grow up in a home where they are safe and protected from abuse and neglect.
- Early Care and Education: Ensure each child in Pennsylvania has the opportunity to participate in affordable and accessible high-quality early care and education, including infant and toddler child care and pre-kindergarten education.
- Home Visiting: Ensure each child in Pennsylvania has the opportunity to grow up in a stable and healthy home environment.
- K-12 Education: Ensure each child in Pennsylvania has the opportunity for an adequate and equitable high-quality public education.
- Perinatal and Child Health: Ensure each parent and child in Pennsylvania can access affordable, quality health care.
