About us
At KVC Health Systems, our 2,400 caring team members work every day to strengthen families, prevent child abuse and neglect, and help both children and adults achieve mental wellness. We all need connection! And at KVC, our employees are our greatest asset and strength, helping the people we serve experience the power of connection to themselves, their family and friends, and to professionals who can help them thrive. We're working toward a bold vision: a world in which every person is SAFE and CONNECTED to a strong family and a healthy community. No more child abuse and neglect. No more untreated mental illness or addiction. Parents no longer pass down the cycles of violence, substance use or trauma that they experienced as children. Instead, families have the skills and supportive connections they need to thrive. Every individual has unlimited possibilities and can reach their full potential. This is why the KVC team comes to work every day, providing family strengthening services, mental and behavioral healthcare, foster care, adoption and inpatient children’s mental health treatment. People are facing serious challenges, and community needs are greater than ever. Will you join us? Since 1970, KVC has grown from a single home for at-risk children to a national organization serving over 80,000 children and families each year in Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Kentucky and West Virginia. KVC also provides training and consultation around the world. We're a family of private, nonprofit 501(c)3 organizations committed to enriching and enhancing the lives of children and families.

Today, we’re highlighting Kecia, Supervisor Foster Care Case Manager, whose compassion and dedication truly reflect the essence of our Kindness Changes Lives program. 💚 Kecia was nominated for her unwavering commitment, uplifting spirit and heartfelt concern, which leave a meaningful impression on both our team and the families we support. Thank you! "Kecia was more than a case manager; she was a beacon of compassion and determination. When she spoke with us, she listened intently, absorbing every detail of our story. Kecia understood that family bonds were essential, even when strained by adversity. She saw beyond the paperwork recognizing the love that connected our family. She tirelessly worked to bridge the gap between the system and the heart. Kecia attended court hearings, met with staff and collaborated with Court Appointed Special Advocates. Kecia’s advocacy turned the tide. The court recognized our commitment, and our child returned to our home. Kecia’s intervention rewrote the script, turning despair into hope and separation into reunion. Kecia is a legend in our home—a name proudly spoken with gratitude and awe. She epitomized the Power of One, all it takes is one person to listen, to fight, and to believe. Because of Kecia, our story blossomed into a tale of resilience, love and the magic of reunification."
