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.

Tell Our Next President to Prioritize Kids
Take a Stand Against Malnutrition

Every child deserves the strongest possible start in life. But America’s child care and hunger crises are hitting families hard, making everyday essentials a struggle to afford. Right now, 1 in 7 children in the U.S. is growing up in poverty – and the cost of living is on the rise.
