Children’s Rights, a non-profit organization, is well-known and well-respected in its work of defending and protecting children’s rights especially those in the foster care system. Its staff, members and supporters use the law in holding state and local governments accountable where children’s rights are concerned.
Such is its success that the organization has literally saved thousands of kids from the abuse and neglect albeit not necessarily on an individual basis. Children’s Rights have secured many court orders mandating child welfare reforms across a dozen states, said reforms of which have resulted in safer environments and better services in education, housing, and healthcare for kids in foster homes. Plus, the kids are also more likely to be placed in permanent homes with loving families.
Indeed, Children’s Rights have proven and continues to prove that the child welfare system in the United States can be fixed and, thus, can run better than it does now. In the end, the kids who are the future of the nation benefit from its programs and projects.
