  • Child Abuse Public Policy Advocacy

    Public policy advocacy work includes educating policy makers about the dynamics of child abuse. Empowering adults to protect kids often means changing systems developed to protect children and families. Work in the legislative arena puts high impact laws into place that ultimately create greater protections for Missouri's kids. Some policy priorities include expanding access to evidence-based mental health services to traumatized children, more appropriately identifying and treating youth with problem sexual behaviors, proposals to improve law enforcement and child protective services investigations of child abuse, and to protect the currently existing funds that support our child welfare system.
