Children’s Law Center envisions a future for the District of Columbia in which every child has a safe home, a meaningful education and a healthy mind and body. We work toward this vision by providing legal services to at-risk children and their families and using the knowledge we gain from representing our individual clients to advocate for changes in the law and its implementation.

Children’s Law Center’s programs foster hope and create opportunity – focusing on the children who need us most … children in the child welfare system and impoverished children and families with special education and health care problems.
