We believe preventing child maltreatment is more than a family matter. Especially now.

PASSED: The Jenna Quinn Law is headed to the President's desk!
@JohnCornyn and I introduced this bicameral, commonsense bill to give students, teachers, and caregivers more tools to protect vulnerable children from child sexual abuse.
Each life is precious, and each life deserves protection at every stage. I urge @POTUS to swiftly sign this critical piece of legislation into law.
We’re thrilled H.R. 9076, the Protecting America’s Children by Strengthening Families Act, passed the House of Representatives today! The bill includes many of our recommendations to strengthen families and prevent child abuse, as well as critical new investments for prevention!
I am so proud that H.R. 9076, Protecting America’s Children by Strengthening Families Act passed the U.S #HouseofRepresentatives today! I testified in Congress at the invitation of @RepJasonSmith on this bill and so proud that the P.A.R.I.S.H Act language introduced by @RepGregSteube @RepJimmyPanetta that addresses oversight and accountability for foster youth in residential facilities just PASSED 🥹 Trying to use my story to help make the world a better place! Thank you @HouseGOP @HouseDemocrats for prioritizing and protecting #fosteryouth 🇺🇸
We are thrilled that @ClareAnderson16 with @Chapin_Hall highlighted the important work of the CTF Alliance’s Birth Parent Network (BPNN) and their recommendations for change as part of today’s White House Convening on Child Welfare Transformation.

GREAT NEWS! The Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) has been upheld by the US Supreme Court! We are honored to stand in solidarity with Tribal Nations to #ProtectICWA. #SCOTUS #ICWA
By keeping children close to their community and recognizing the importance of kinship connections, #ICWA’s practices and policies ensure that children benefit from the support and cultural practices that are key to continuity in their lives.
We must recommit ourselves to upholding these principles codified through #ICWA that improve the well-being of children and families in Tribal Nations and across the United States.
.@SenSchumer @LeaderMcConnell @McConnellPress Our nation needs #CAPTA to
- Reduce child abuse fatalities
- Support adoption for children who need it
- Protect kids from sexual abuse, physical abuse & neglect
Delays will cost children’s lives. Prevent child abuse #PassCAPTA now.
The @CTFAlliance strongly urges Congress to reauthorize the Child Abuse Prevention & Treatment Act (#CAPTA) and Family Violence Prevention Services Act (#FVPSA)! These are must pass pieces of legislation to address family violence in our nation. #PassCAPTA #PassFVPSA
