WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In advance of the President’s State of the Union address and as the new Congress gets underway, the Child Welfare League of America (CWLA), the nation’s oldest and largest membership-based child welfare organization, has released its legislative wish list, with key issues impacting the health and welfare of vulnerable U.S. children that it hopes the Administration and Congress will tackle in the coming year.
“That’s why we present our wish list as a roadmap for the President and Congress to follow that puts children at the forefront. Wise decisions today will have long-term impacts on children, families and our nation’s future.”
“Children are not a political or partisan issue. They are a national priority. As the new Congress starts, finding ways to work together is imperative to helping vulnerable children succeed,” said CWLA CEO Christine James-Brown. “That’s why we present our wish list as a roadmap for the President and Congress to follow that puts children at the forefront. Wise decisions today will have long-term impacts on children, families and our nation’s future.” FULL STORY
The article goes on to mention "child welfare reform". I don't think their definition is even remotely similar to mine.
