Our Key Issues

Children in Crisis

When crisis strikes, SCAN speaks up.

Unthinkable conflict. Unbearable poverty. Unimaginable levels of need. These crises and more pose a grave threat to kids’ futures. Millions around the world have had their childhoods stolen. It’s not fair — but our elected leaders have the power to help.

Our Mission

We champion the rights of the world’s 2.3 billion children. 

Surviving is just the beginning for at-risk kids. In the face of ever-growing humanitarian need, SCAN is urging Congress to fund urgent and long-term support for struggling families and communities — advocating for programs that keep children healthy, learning and safe from harm.

Urge President-Elect Trump to Put Kids First

Children are still at risk and needs remain immense. Tell Congress: Act now to prevent more suffering.

In times of crisis, humanitarian aid helps communities rebuild. The more our nation invests in these lifesaving programs, the more struggling families we can support. Tell Congress to fund humanitarian aid and protect kids’ futures!
