Our History
Completely KIDS serves more than 3,400 KIDS in 16 locations primarily throughout southeast Omaha. This includes public and parochial schools, homeless shelters and the Ronald McDonald House. We also provide services for family members of our KIDS to strengthen their support system.
A high percentage of the KIDS we serve are eligible for free or reduced lunch, an indicator of need. In 2019, the federal poverty level for a family of four was annual income of $25,750. Most of the families we serve fall below this.
Completely KIDS focuses on a holistic approach to meeting the needs of KIDS and families. This is why we provide nutritious meals and mental health services. Our adult classes help parents learn skills to improve the economy and self-sufficiency of the family. With language barriers a reality with many of our parents, Completely KIDS staff serve as necessary conduits to communication with teachers and administration at the schools where our programs reside.
