Every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and valued.

Children Services programs play a critical role in protecting vulnerable kids, supporting families in crisis, and giving children a real chance at a stable future. When funding is reduced, the impact is immediate—fewer resources, fewer services, and fewer opportunities to step in when it matters most.

This isn’t just about programs—it’s about real children in our community who rely on these services every day.

Continued funding means:

• Support for families working to stay together.

• Access to counseling, foster care, and essential resources.

• A stronger, safer community for everyone.

If we want better outcomes for children, we have to invest in the systems that protect them.

PLEASE VOTE FOR THE RENEWAL Children Services Levy May 5th. Our community’s future depends on it.

Last night, the Mercer County Democratic Party welcomed Jason Cupp from the Mercer County For The Kids levy campaign to speak about the upcoming Mercer County Children’s Services Renewal Levy on the May 5 ballot.

After hearing how this renewal levy helps protect children, support families, and strengthen our community, the Party voted to officially endorse the levy.

Investing in the safety and wellbeing of our children is something our whole community can stand behind.
