We are grateful to the members of the Kentucky General Assembly who made this possible through their Phase One investment in the 2024 state budget and Phase Two investment earlier this year. Your commitment to making child abuse prevention a priority has helped turn this vision into reality and allowed Upstream Academy to get off the ground and begin making a difference in communities across the Commonwealth.
