About

Established in 2014 and reimagined under the Adams administration, The NYC Children’s Cabinet seeks to drive coordination and efficiency across city departments; mobilize resources around the Mayor’s priorities for children; strengthen partnerships with the non-profit and private sectors; and facilitate a holistic approach to serving children by aligning agency policies that affect children’s health, safety, and well-being.  

The Children’s Cabinet goals are to: 

• Strengthen partnerships across agencies to meet the needs of vulnerable children and families 
• Engage in collaborative problem solving and share and leverage each other’s resources 
• Enhance communication between and among agencies 
• Inform children’s policies and programs by utilizing linked administrative data from multiple agency systems. 
• Set protocols for access to information, resolving policy conflicts, engaging in joint training and program development and coordinating service delivery.
