Who We Are

The Children’s Board of Hillsborough County proudly serves children and families. Created by the voters in 1988, we provide funding for services and supports on behalf of children, with an emphasis on pregnant women and children birth to age eight. In fiscal year 2020, we invested $51.8 million in more than 66 local non-profit agencies. Our funded partners have clearly defined goals and outcomes that are regularly monitored for quality and performance. The strategic focus of the Children’s Board is to work with organizations who share a common vision of offering support to children so they can lead a healthy, safe, and productive life, which makes a difference for all residents of Hillsborough County.
