Kern County Network for Children

Created in 1992, the Kern County Network for Children (KCNC) harnesses the power of community action in meeting the critical needs of Kern County’s children and families. KCNC takes pride in assisting local community collaboratives and family service agencies in developing integrated service delivery models to help identify and address the most critical children’s issues in Kern County.

We believe in:

• Personal responsibility and family self-sufficiency as the cornerstones of resilient, stable communities;

• Grassroots solutions to local problems;
• Empowering local residents to address common concerns;
• Locally-based, accessible services;
• Program accountability and delivery of cost-effective services

KCNC programs and initiatives serve many functions benefiting children and families in Kern County and are carried out through the active involvement of government leaders, nonprofit agencies, organizations, businesses and private individuals.
