One Tough Job
One Tough Job is both a website and campaign, which is sponsored by the Massachusetts Children’s Trust Fund. The Trust Fund has been in existence since 1988 and has been working for the protection of children and strengthening of families. It also aims to support parents by offering information and skills so that they can be the best parents to their children. The One Tough Job website is for parents who want to learn parenting tips and styles to help them in rearing their kids.
The Massachusetts Children’s Trust Fund serves the state by focusing on the prevention of child neglect and abuse by parents by providing support so that families can be strengthened. The organization promotes, evaluates, and funds more than 100 agencies as they serve both children and parents in the state of Massachusetts. The organization is supported by private, federal, and state funding.
The Trust Fund works with the federal and state governments, private supporters and funders, human service agencies, communities and parents as they focus on families and children. Funding is centrally pooled and allocated to provide the optimum benefit for the common good of the whole state. The organization provides funding to community organizations and strives to research on the most appropriate strategies to help families as they struggle with their daily lives.
The organization also works in raising public awareness concerning the importance and availability of support programs for the family. Funding also goes to initiatives like public awareness, public policy, evaluation, training, and research in order to help children and families in Massachusetts.

Users of this Directory are advised that this information is provided as a general reference only. Rescue Youth assumes no responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained herein, and do not assume any liability resulting from errors or omissions. Inclusion or omission of business or organization is not a comment on its quality. Inclusion of a company or organization on the Rescue Youth Website does not constitute endorsement, or recommendations of their products or services.Most of the programs listed on this website are not regulated by the federal government, and many are not subject to state licensing or monitoring as mental health or educational facilities, either. A 2007 Report to Congress by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) found cases involving serious abuse and neglect at some of these programs. Many programs advertise on the Internet and through other media, making claims about staff credentials, the level of treatment a participant will receive, program accreditation, education credit transfers, success rates, and endorsements by educational consultants. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, cautions that before you enroll a youngster in a private residential treatment program, check it out: ask questions; ask for proof or support for claims about staff credentials, program accreditation, and endorsements; do a site visit; and get all policies and promises in writing.
