What do these icons mean(To help Kansans see themselves as key contributors to the important work ahead, each tactic displays one or more icons representing where stakeholders can have impact.)?

Family-friendly workplaces are essential to support working families, and Kansas is fortunate to have Kansas Power of the Positive (KPoP) leading these efforts. KPoP recognizes the influence of family-friendly workplace policies and practices on preventing adverse childhood experiences. The coalition focuses on societal-level interventions, and a major focus is the Family Friendly Workplace  coordinated with the Wichita State University Community Engagement Institute.

With Governor Kelly signing House Bill 2237 – Child Day Care Assistance Credit, all businesses in Kansas can apply to receive a state income tax credit for helping their employees cover child care costs if the business helps provide child care itself.
