Kinnect INC. Has one fundamental goal to help place children in foster care with a permanent family. Permanency is what our children deserve, and IT is what they need in order to heal and grow from the trauma they have experienced due to abuse or neglect. Kinnect INC. Is a collaborative organization. We work closely with counties around ohio who have custody of children in foster care. We also work with private nonprofit agencies, court systems, mental health agencies, and our colleagues from around the country to work on behalf of families and children. Our role is to help agencies increase their permanency outcomes. We help build programs, we advocate for improvements to the foster care system, we provide training and coaching, and we are working to lead a movement of agencies and individuals who are committed to ensuring that all children achieve permanency.

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
