The Center for Children’s Advocacy fights for the legal rights of Connecticut’s most at-risk children. We provide unparalleled legal representation for abused and neglected children and for those who suffer from inadequate educational support, lack of access to healthcare or mental health care, or juvenile justice involvement. Our relationships with policy makers and administrative leaders help us effect systemic change that improves the lives of thousands of children each year. We have been a powerful voice for the state’s most vulnerable children since 1997. For information about the Center's important work, visit kidscounsel.org.
