“In alignment with the 2021-2025 strategic plan, children's bureau explored a name change to overcome several challenges and better reflect its brand strategy. Since 1904, the agency has had five names, and "children's bureau" has presented obstacles, including confusion with a similarly named government office, lack of clarity around services, and limited alignment with current strategic goals. In october 2023, the board approved the name change to all for kids and began implementing it in march 2024 as "children's bureau of southern california dba all for kids." in october 2024, the agency applied to the state of california to legally change the business name to all for kids organization.”
