Information
Organization's Own Description:
The Alliance for Children’s Rights protects the rights of impoverished, abused and neglected children and youth. By providing free legal services, advocacy, and programs that create pathways to jobs and education, the Alliance levels the playing field and ensures that children who have experienced foster care are able to fulfill their potential.
Since 1992, we have served 125,000 children. Our efforts are focused in three main areas:
- Free legal services and advocacy for children in foster care
- Training and education for those who work with or care for these children
- System-wide reform to change policies to improve children’s lives
We cut through the bureaucracy of the courts, healthcare system, school districts and government agencies to secure a brighter future for children in need. Our staff and extensive network of pro bono attorneys advocate directly for individual children, and work toward broader policy reform to:
- expedite adoptions.
- secure medical coverage and therapies for children.
- support children faced with the effects of trauma and disability.
- assist young adults aging out of foster care to become productive and self-reliant.
