For more than 130 years, the Wisconsin Council on Children and Families has been working to ensure that all children grow up in a just and nurturing family and community. No matter the year, the political climate or the state of our economy, WCCF has always put children first.

While we may not directly feed, provide child care or house people in need—we do focus on achieving lasting, long term results. WCCF works to improve outcomes for children in the areas of health, economic security, safety and education. Through research, public education and advocacy we help policy makers and government officials make changes that positively impact the well-being of children and families in Wisconsin.

The information we provide through our blog posts is just one part of our efforts to protect and support children and families, but it is a part of our work that requires the support of the people who look to WCCF to shed light on critical public policy choices.

Please join us in this important mission to protect Wisconsin’s most vulnerable. This holiday season give a gift that will touch the lives of Wisconsin’s children. Please contribute $500, $100, $50 or whatever you can afford to the Wisconsin Council on Children and Families. Your support will help us raise our voice to make every kid count.

Thank you for your support, and we look forward to working together in the coming year to assist the children and families of our state.

Join us to build a Wisconsin where
every child and family thrives.

Our Take: The Wisconsin 2023-25 Biennial Budget

Proposed Tax Cut Privileges Wealthiest 1%, Leaves Struggling Families Behind

Proposed Tax Cut Privileges Wealthiest 1%, Leaves Struggling Families Behind

Wisconsin can be a place where we all—regardless of race or place—have what we need to make ends meet. However, last week the Republican-controlled Joint Finance Committee voted for a tax cut that would aid in gutting supports for families. Letting Wisconsin’s wealthiest off the hook from paying what they owe means many struggling families are left behind, particularly children and families of color and those furthest from opportunity. We are calling on Governor Evers to stand up for everyday families and veto this tax cut for the wealthy few.
