Our Advocacy Priorities

Advocacy is one of Children’s Friends’ five principles. We define advocacy as “taking a
leadership role in educating policymakers and the public on the needs of the youngest
and most vulnerable children and their families.” In 2023, we hope to deepen the public

and policymakers' understanding of the programs that impact families and their children.
We will proactively advocate for legislation, including the state budget, that will
improve outcomes for children.

With your support, Children’s Friend is prioritizing advocacy around substantial and
sustainable investments in First Connections, Early Intervention, Head Start, and the
Child Care Assistance program.
