Every summer, children and families from across the country — many facing serious and complex medical conditions — gather in Washington, D.C., to share their stories with members of Congress.
Over two decades, nearly 1,000 child advocates have visited Capitol Hill, meeting with more than 2,500 leaders directly responsible for passing laws in our country. These personal narratives put faces to the policies that affect millions of children and help lawmakers understand what’s truly at stake.
