About Us
The One Tough Job campaign and website are brought to you by the Massachusetts Children’s Trust Fund. Since 1988, the Children’s Trust Fund has served the citizens of Massachusetts by working to protect children, support parents and strengthen families. We know all parents want the best for their children and we believe that all parents need and deserve support, skills and information to be the best parents they can be. Through this website, all parents can have access online to information shared through CTF-funded programs in communities throughout the state. One Tough Job aims to support parents and help them be the best parents they can be.
