TEAM for West Virginia Children
Resource Details
The TEAM for West Virginia Children is a charitable organization founded in 1986. Originally formed by the Junior League of Huntington as a task force on child abuse, TEAM has undertaken various responsibilities, including networking, community education, victim advocacy, family support, community team building, and public policy advocacy.
We believe (and research backs us up) that by providing children and families with information, support, resources, and by building family-friendly communities, the rates of child maltreatment will substantially drop. TEAM for West Virginia Children works with communities and families to make the needs of children a priority. TEAM programs promote child well-being by providing parents and communities with the tools they need to make a positive difference in children’s lives.
Our work is partially funded by grants from public and private sources. In order to fully fund our programs, we rely on donations from individuals and businesses and fundraising activities.
