Advocacy at Your CAC
Advocacy is one of the central components within the children’s advocacy center (CAC) movement. All CACs engage in foundational advocacy practices, and some centers provide additional support based on local needs and norms. The Minnesota Children’s Alliance (Alliance) collaborated with advocates from CACs in our state to develop a set of principles that are commonly held and that guide the work.
