In the heart of our community, there exists a vital lifeline, a beacon of hope that shines brightly for the most vulnerable among us – our children. We rely on the kindness and generosity of compassionate individuals like you to sustain this lifeline. Without Child Advocates, these innocent might find themselves adrift in a sea of bureaucracy, their voices silenced, their pleas unheard.
Year-round, we serve children who have experienced abuse and neglect or other life traumas or challenges. We advocate for justice, equity, and well-being for them and other vulnerable children across Indiana.
Please watch this video about one of our empowering programs for youth: Direct Representation. It is the only program in the state giving older foster children their own free, in-house attorney to represent their voice in court and what they want for their future. Hear from one of our attorneys, and our now-retired CEO, about how it is transforming a teen girl’s life.
