Speak Now for Kids is an online child advocacy network designed to help raise awareness of the unique challenges children and families face in our changing health care system. We encourage child health champions (people like you) to learn about issues affecting children's health care, submit personal stories, read and share stories as well as information, and take action in support of public policies that benefit kids and families. There are multiple social media outlets under the Speak Now for Kids umbrella:
