Child Advocate

A child advocate is a professional who works to ensure that the rights, needs, and best interests of children are protected and prioritized. They may represent children in legal cases, help navigate education or healthcare systems, or work with agencies to improve policies affecting young people. Child advocates listen to children's perspectives, ensure their voices are heard, and promote safe, healthy environments for their development. Their goal is to support children in overcoming challenges and to ensure their well-being is at the forefront of decision-making processes that affect their lives.
