Bringing organizations together to support Kansas City's Families
Cradle Kansas City is a collective impact initiative created to address infant mortality in the Kansas City region. Cradle KC collective is a gathering all of partners who work in the family support sector. These include maternal child health organizations, medical systems, education, housing, and transportation. These organizations and individuals are working to uplift the voice of the community. Our Goal at Cradle KC to ensure all Kansas City Babies are healthy babies.
We believe every baby born in Kansas City should celebrate their first birthday!
JOY
There is no greatest component to our mission than joy. After all, CKC works every day towards a future where every KC baby and their mothers are healthy.
ACTION
11 babies die a month in the metro, so we don’t have time for working in silos.
DATA
Everyone wants to do the community facing things that “feel good” but rarely ever “do good”. Data tells us where to aim, and if we are making a real impact for our population
CLARITY
Infant mortality is a complicated problem, and that causes people to give up and stick with what they know. A clear path to act on is why people will follow us.
