We are advocates for those who can’t speak for themselves. We are a voice for the voiceless, we prioritize child well-being, and we are advocates for victims.

Arizona Department of Child Safety Core Values

Advocates for What’s Right

When children can’t speak for themselves, we can. As leaders in child well-being, we advocate to make the world a better place for children, while helping their families improve and heal. We champion actions that strengthen communities, families and our staff.
