Save the Children Action Network

Our SCAN community works together to make sustainable policy changes. We recruit and train volunteers — including parents, early learning professionals and students — to engage with candidates and elected officials and campaign to achieve big wins for kids.

Save the Children Action Network (SCAN) is Save the Children’s political advocacy arm, created in 2014 to be the political voice for kids. Through a combination of grassroots activism, compelling messaging and candidate engagement, we build relationships with policymakers to increase investments in expanding access to early childhood education, preventing child hunger in the U.S and globally and protecting children around the world from harm in times of crisis.
