The Sacramento County Children's Coalition - Children's Trust Fund The Children's Trust Fund (CTF) was created by California State legislation (Assembly Bill 2994), enacted in 1983, to provide funding for child abuse and neglect prevention and intervention programs operated by private non-profit organizations or public institutions of higher education with recognized expertise related to child well-being. Funding for the CTF is derived primarily from a portion of the fees charged for certified copies of birth certificates in Sacramento County. The CTF may be augmented by grants, gifts, and bequests from private sources, tax appeals, and/or funds appropriated to Sacramento County for the CTF by the California State Legislature. County Boards of Supervisors may designate a local voluntary commission, board, or council to carry out the purposes of the legislation establishing the CTF. Accordingly, the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors appointed the Children's Coalition (Coalition), an advisory board composed of community volunteers, as the body responsible for administering the CTF and conducting its competitive bid/selection processes. The CTF Committee has been delegated by the Coalition to carry out this competitive bid/selection process and issuing this RFP. The Sacramento County Department of Child, Family and Adult Services is the fiscal agent for the Children's Coalition; therefore, awards will result in contracts with Sacramento County. The Coalition is made up of a broad range of individuals who intersect with various children's systems in Sacramento County, such as education, physical and mental health, child advocacy, childcare, and social services. In August 2025, the Coalition convened its annual member retreat to identify advocacy priorities for 2025–2026, drawing on information and community insights gathered over the past two years. The Coalition affirmed that meaningful child abuse prevention and early intervention begin with addressing the social determinants that shape the well-being of children, youth, and families—such as mental health, home safety, and educational support.
