							KVC is a great organization for our region. Their mission to assist children, parents, and families on getting back on their feet and find solutions for their well-being is something each community desperately needs. Having the pleasure to partner with KVC, I have witnessed how KVC can make a difference for those families and foster improvement in their lives. The dedication of their leadership, staff, and volunteers is noticeable and shows how committed they are to sustaining long-term results in our community.

							I have seen firsthand how KVC Health Systems and their subsidiaries impact our community and youth on a daily basis. Working closely with KVC leadership, I can truly say how professional and committed they are in all aspects of their operations. I would not hesitate to reach out for help for my children at any of their behavioral health care facilities. Their new hospital in Olathe KS is a first-class state-of-the-art facility that was designed with a trauma-informed lens and is an extremely safe facility while still a normative environment for the best healing environment possible. Can't say enough about KVC and Camber staff, they are all dedicated to helping all their patients.

							KVC is a tremendous organization, serving families and children in crisis. Their Camber facility, recently opened in partnership with Children’s Mercy, is best in class and fills a huge void for behavioral health in Johnson County.

							We've had the honor of working with KVC for the past 6+ years. Their teams are filled with brilliant, caring people who strive to make a positive difference for children and families every day. They continue to push themselves as an organization and have been nationally recognized time and again for their incredible, trauma-informed work in child welfare and behavioral healthcare—both by the Annie E. Casey Foundation and through collaborations with organizations like NYU and Sesame Street in Communities. They've accomplished so much good in their 50-year history, and we have no doubt they will only continue to do so in the next 50!
