Be a Voice for Abused and Neglected Children
Since 2002, The Kansas City Child Abuse Roundtable Coalition, a group of advocates and elected officials, has joined together to promote awareness of child abuse and the prevention, training and treatment services available in the greater Kansas City metropolitan area. Over 30 community agencies have brought needed attention to this important issue through cooperation and educational opportunities for adults and children. In 2006, the group expanded to become a bi-state effort. Please endorse the 2008 KC Child Abuse Roundtable Coalition's Legislative Priorities.
