How Washington County Kids is Expanding Access to Education and Youth Support
At Networked, we are proud to partner with Washington County Kids (WCK), a nonprofit dedicated to ensuring that children and youth have access to early childhood, after-school, and summer programs in Washington County, Oregon.
About Washington County Kids
WCK serves as the only county-wide coordinator for after-school and summer programs, making it a critical support system for families and youth. The organization facilitates networking, educational opportunities, and the sharing of best practices among program providers while advocating for sustainable funding to expand access to these essential services.
The challenges facing children in Washington County are significant. Rising child poverty, lack of access to affordable childcare, and limited after-school opportunities put many at risk of falling behind academically or facing hardships that affect their future. WCK works to ensure that every child, regardless of background, has access to safe, enriching, and supportive environments outside of school. Through strong partnerships and community-driven initiatives, WCK is making a lasting impact on the lives of local youth.
