and families were in attendance and enjoyed the opportunity to interact, participate in games and activities, and
celebrate children in our community. Each year Step Up for Kids brings together thousands of people to show
widespread support for investments in children and families. Participants include child advocates, politicians,
parents and children. These non-partisan events across the nation raise awareness among citizens and political
leaders of the issues facing children and families. Some of these issues include poverty, health, lack of access
to high-quality affordable child care, early learning opportunities and after-school programs.
