Children & Families Action Network (CFAN) promotes mission-based advocacy to increase civic engagement, encourage community wide collaboration, and serve as a catalyst for system changes in public policy on behalf of children, families, and communities. CFAN is a resource to the children and family serving sector, community leaders, and local, state and congressional officials.

CFAN supports:

• Increased engagement by nonprofit leaders and volunteers in mission-based advocacy to strengthen capacity for the benefit of children and families.
• Improved organizational capacity to lead, adapt, manage, and implement advocacy strategies.
• Aligning systems of care and improving networking, partnerships, and alliances with other organizations or individuals to support better outcomes for children and families.
• Capacity building within our community to advocate for better policies in support of children and families.

CFAN provides leadership in advocacy education for organizations and individuals who work to improve quality of life in communities.
