Since our founding in 1978, CSSP has been at the forefront of our nation’s most significant reforms in child welfare and family support services, combining rigorous standards for policy analysis and nurturing innovation in communities.

We have partnered with welfare rights organizations, labor unions, and federal, state, and local administrators to push for a fairer welfare reform agenda, based in employment opportunities and the earned income tax credit. From our origins to where we stand today, social justice and equity has always been at the core of our work.

We believe that our collective efforts will dramatically shift our nation toward a more fair, just, and equitable society. With your support, we can continue to do the crucial anti-racist, intersectional work that will support all children, youth, and families.
