PARTICIPANT DEMOGRAPHICS
All parents should feel supported, valued and empowered to ensure their children have the best chance at a bright future.
Almost half of the families we serve are below the Federal Poverty Line (FPL), a 1% increase from last year.
Child poverty in the U.S. has surged, nearly tripling from 5% in 2021 to 13% in 2024 (U.S. Child Poverty 2025). Families in our programs are feeling increased stress as the cost of living continues to rise.
In fact, the living wage in Travis County is estimated between $83,096 and $114,525 depending on whether one parent can stay home and not have to pay for childcare. 78% of our clients are under 200% of the Federal Poverty Line (FPL), which is below the estimated living wage.
Federal Poverty Level (FPL) for 2024 is $32,150 annually for a family of four.
We provided basic needs assistance to 552 families last year, an 8% increase from the previous year.
We supported families with $314,337 in basic needs assistance just last year. This includes essentials like childcare, food, housing, HEB gift cards, baby supplies, utility support and more.
Our programs serve families across 8 Texas counties.
Llano, 1%
Burnet, <1%
Bell, <1%
Williamson, 6%
Travis, 72%
Hays, 16%
Blanco, <1%
Caldwell, <1%
Bastrop, 1%

We primarily serve children under age 3.
Did You Know?
Postpartum depressive symptoms affect 1-in-8 mothers, with a disproportionate impact on women of color. The leading cause of pregnancy‑related deaths is mental health conditions (2024 Maternal and Infant Health Disparities Data Brief).
In 2025, our Parents as Teachers program trained three home parent educators to become Certified Doulas. Doulas assist mothers with post-partum care and breastfeeding and help create a positive and empowering experience. Doulas are incredibly beneficial for the families we serve, especially for young mothers.
