Child advocacy

Child advocacy means speaking up for and protecting the rights of children who might be too young, too scared or too unable to speak up for themselves. This means making sure children are treated fairly and have access to the support and services they need to thrive. Advocates for children can work in many different fields, such as education, healthcare, social services, law, and government, and their jobs are to make sure that children are safe and protected from harm. They can help to prevent abuse, neglect, and other forms of cruelty towards children, and they can also work to create policies and programs that promote children's health and well-being. Child advocacy can be done by individuals, organizations or communities, and it's intended to give children a voice and protect their rights.
