The Change Maker Awards celebrate people and organizations that are creating real, meaningful change for children struggling with mental health and learning disorders. From the community leader putting in long hours for immigrant youth to the passionate nonprofit providing vital resources for families, this year’s honorees inspire us with their passion for changing the way we understand and treat our children. We invite you to learn more about our Change Makers — honorees, finalists and honorable mentions — and to support their work. By following their lead and working together, we can all transform children’s lives.

This year we’re honored to partner with Hunter, national sponsor of the Change Maker Awards. For every vote that was cast, Hunter donated $1 to the Child Mind Institute.
