Below is a quick message from our executive director, Claire Berkowitz.
Dear Friends of MCA,
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your friends and families. At the Maine Children's Alliance, we had so much to be grateful for this year. With your support, we were able to make major headway in our efforts to improve the lives of Maine children, youth and families.
For starters... - You helped us pass a bill to improve the health and safety of Maine children in child care;
- You helped us gather data to better understand the social emotional learning and development of Maine's young children; and,
- You helped us convene national experts and stakeholders to improve child outcomes in Maine.
These are just some of the highlights. The bottom-line is that our important work at the Maine Children's Alliance is not possible without your generous contributions.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we hope you will continue to show your support
so we can continue our research and advocacy throughout the next Legislative session and the remainder of the year. 
Thank you for your commitment to Maine children, youth and families all year long. Together we can make Maine a better place to be a kid.
Sincerely,
Claire Berkowitz,
Executive Director
