PFC at the Capitol
One of the most important ways that Partnership for Children serves as a voice for kids is by advocating on their behalf at the state capitol. We play a vital role in ensuring that children are a priority in the minds of our policy makers by providing testimony, producing fact sheets, and visiting one on one with legislators. We also bring organized grassroots constituencies around our issues to the state capitol to help inform and impact the legislative process.
