The Children's Trust is a public-private organization working toward a Massachusetts free from child abuse and neglect. We partner with organizations and communities to drive systemic change to address the root causes of abuse and neglect so that all children can grow up in thriving families.

The Children’s Trust has established strong partnerships with some of the most effective and impactful family support agencies and organizations throughout Massachusetts. These collaborations are designed to enhance the support network available to families, ensuring they have access to the resources and services needed to thrive. By working closely with a wide range of community organizations, we are strengthening efforts to prevent child abuse and neglect and promote the overall well-being of families across the state.

When children grow up in thriving families, it changes the course of their lives.
