Advertising Policy

NW Kids is supported by advertising. As with other media outlets, we try to be neutral and “non-denominational” when running ads. We don’t want to be in the position of choosing whose voice will be heard and believe that all who wish to advertise should be free to do so as long as their message is neither abusive nor offensive.

NW Kids does not endorse the positions or opinions of our advertisers. We believe our readers and visitors are savvy enough to form their own opinions. We also believe our visitors want to hear from organizations who have interesting products to sell or things to say—and are here to provide those advertisers with a way to tell their stories to our readers.

Feel free to send any comments or suggestions regarding our advertising policy to the Publisher at NW Kids, michelle@nwkidsmagazine.com. Your comments are read and carefully considered—and you’ll almost certainly hear back from us.
