Advocates
Young children’s doctors have the potential to be a critical resource to policymakers and to early childhood advocates. Doctors have tremendous access to children and their families and unique credibility. They are among society’s most trusted messengers and can add a critical voice to your efforts. Many doctors are interested in advocacy opportunities but lack the time and connections to learn how to begin.
