About Us

Raising Our Children with Kindness

We are a collaborative of community members – including individuals and organizations – joining together to promote family resilience and reduce child maltreatment. R.O.C.K. Mat-Su works to strengthen the social fabric and influence systems that affect kids and families through the borough, all in support of achieving the goal of ending child abuse in Mat-Su.

Our Vision

All Mat-Su children are safe, healthy, and thriving.

Our Goals

  • Strengthen families so all children are safe, healthy, and thriving.
  • End child abuse and neglect, and reduce Adverse Childhood Experiences.

How We Work

We utilize the Collective Impact Framework to guide our work of changing the systems that impact children and families in the Mat-Su Borough. The framework calls for multiple organizations or entities from different sectors to champion a common agenda, shared measurement, alignment of effort, and continuous communication. Mat-Su Health Foundation serves as the backbone organization by providing dedicated staff and infrastructure to support the work of the collective.
