We know that you believe children deserve our best. At Save the Children, we feel the same way. Watch as we count down the top five child rights.
Advocate for Children
Over 100 years ago, Save the Children’s pioneering founder established that children have rights. Today and every day, thanks to our supporters, we are advocates for the rights of 2.3 billion children around the world.
Our political advocacy arm – Save the Children Action Network – was founded in 2014. Together, we’re building bipartisan will and voter support for children in the United States and globally. Through a combination of grassroots activism, compelling messaging and candidate engagement, SCAN builds relationships with policymakers to increase investments in expanding access to early childhood education, preventing child hunger in the U.S and globally and protecting children around the world from harm in times of crisis.
Through research, partnership and advocacy, our Global Policy and Advocacy team educates and cultivates political leadership to adopt proven practices, policies and programs for the world’s most vulnerable children, families and communities.

As the political voice for children, Save the Children Action Network (SCAN) is working to expand early education across the nation, fight food insecurity to keep kids nourished and thriving — here in the U.S. and around the world, as well as champion children’s right to physical and emotional safety — so they’re protected when crisis strikes.

POLICY AND ADVOCACY
Like our founder, Eglantyne Jebb, Save the Children is an outspoken advoate for children. Drawing on a century of expertise, we work to ensure children’s voices are heard, their rights are realized and their issues are given top priority.
We educate and engage policymakers to champion policies and programs that improve children’s lives, especially the most vulnerable, like those suffering in Yemen’s humanitarian crisis.
