The Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights

The Young Center for Immigrant Childrens Rights protects and advances the rights and best interests of immigrant children according to the Convention on the Rights of the Child and state and federal law. We accomplish this by applying a 'child-centered' approach, courage, collaborative partnerships, community engagement and the pursue of equality and justice.

We advocate for the wishes and best interests of immigrant children through the engagement of independent Child Advocates. These advocates use ethical storytelling practices to understand and share the childrens experiences, helping us amplify their voices, provide technical assistance, and pursue the protection of their rights.
