Nurture KC was thrilled to host the Healthy Start 2024 Graduation, honoring 30 amazing children who reached 18 months of age through the support of our program. The event on October 5th featured a ceremony, lunch, and fun activities for participating families.
Since 1997, Healthy Start has been a key resource for maternal and child health, serving 223 children in 2023 and 161 children so far in 2024. As these graduates transition out, we’re connecting families to Promise1000 - Home Visiting Collective 1000 for continued support up to age 5.
Congratulations to all our graduates and families!

When you donate to Nurture KC this Giving Tuesday, you support moms like Kyndal and Nasavia who are making a better life for their families through our Healthy Start Program. Kyndal earned her Dental Assistant certificate with honors, enjoys working in her field and would like to become a dentist. Nasavia completed her Phlebotomy Technician training and is enrolled in Nursing School. We are proud of them both!

As Thanksgiving nears, we want to give a special thanks to Lynda Johnson who made these cozy blankets for the little ones in our Healthy Start program. The gift of time matters ... and our families appreciate it!
