In celebration of the Child Welfare League of America's 90th anniversary in 2010, this video played at the organization's national conference in January. CWLA was established in 1920, with the help of 68 founding agencies, to bring together public and nonprofit child-serving organizations across the United States.
CWLA strives to ensure safety, permanence, and well-being of children, youth, and their families by advancing public policy, defining and promoting practice excellence, and delivering superior membership services. Our vision is that every child will grow up in a safe, loving, and stable family. Our focus is children and youth who may have experienced abuse, neglect, family disruption, or a range of other factors that jeopardize their safety, permanence, or well-being. CWLA also focuses on the families, caregivers, and the communities that care for and support these children.
