What Does Advocacy Mean to Us

Creating a world where every child is safe to grow requires more than direct services—it requires a collective commitment to championing the needs of children and families. At All For Kids, advocacy means raising awareness, informing policy, and
partnering with community leaders to advance meaningful change. By elevating the voices of those we serve and promoting family-centered solutions, we help build stronger communities where every child has the opportunity to thrive.

To help you get started or learn more about what advocacy means to us, we publish an annual Policy Agenda detailing a slate of bills and budget positions designed to prevent abuse and nurture child well-being.

Policy Priorities

  • Childcare & Early Childhood Development
  • Healthcare for Children and Their Families
