We Are the Political Voice for Kids
As the political advocacy arm of Save the Children, we are building bipartisan support to make sure every child has a strong start in life. We’re doing this by advocating for high-quality early learning for children in the U.S., the safety of children arriving at the southern U.S. border and girls’ empowerment around the world.
