We ask that you join us in our efforts to support the nearly 1000 young people we will represent this year and the thousands more we will help. The experience of young people like Angela* tells the story.
Angela and her siblings became clients of Child Advocates after years of living in and out of shelters with their parents. Angela and her siblings needed immediate clothing, medical attention, and schooling. Even though Angela did her best, she could not obtain these necessities for herself, much less two other children.
After meeting Angela and hearing her story, our Child Advocates team went to work. Our Empowering Older Youth Attorney and staff Social Workers helped Angela and her siblings secure important essentials-- obtaining emergency clothing, scheduling their first doctor visits in over a year, and finalizing school enrollment after several missed school years. In an even better outcome, Angela’s Child Advocates team was able to ensure that all the siblings were placed together in the same home. They are excelling at home and in school, receiving regular healthcare and new clothes, taking trips and planning a future! Angela and her Staff Attorney have even begun to plan for her college options!
