Money is only half the story
A jurisdiction can receive its child-welfare dollars in full and still fail the children those dollars were meant to protect. What the paperwork records and what actually happened to a child are often two different things. That gap is where children are lost — and it is exactly the gap no existing system is allowed to look into, because looking means working with individual children, and individual means names.
How it keeps the promise
Every person is represented by an encrypted token. The same person carries the same token in every state, every agency and every file, across their whole life — so their story can be followed and audited — but no auditor, researcher or member of the public can turn that token back into a name. You do not have to take that on trust; the mechanisms are on this site and you can run them →
