YOUR VOICE CAN CHANGE CHILDREN’S FUTURES
SCAN wouldn’t exist without advocates. In 2023, you helped us send 1 million+ messages to lawmakers, organize events across the nation and host 272 lobby meetings. Together, we celebrated big wins for kids — like electing champions for children and securing millions of dollars in early learning and child nutrition investments.
