First Focus

America's Promise Alliance's policy affiliate is First Focus, which serves as our partner in advocating for young people. First Focus works to ensure that our leaders focus first on the impact their policy decisions have on children and families.

About First Focus

First Focus is a bipartisan advocacy organization launched by America’s Promise Alliance that is committed to making children and their families a priority in federal policy and budget decisions. First Focus works to create a lasting legacy for children and their families by encouraging bipartisan federal policy advancements and investments in children.

Because our missions are complementary and our activities create new synergies, First Focus is a natural partner for our America's Promise Alliance — and an imporant advocate for young people at the federal level.

First Focus brings both traditional and non-traditional leaders together to advocate for federal policies that will improve the lives of America’s children. Child health, education, family economics, child welfare, and child safety are the core issue areas in which First Focus promotes bipartisan policy solutions.
