Children's Defense Fund  

Definición

  • THE CHILDREN's DEFENSE Fund (CDF) was established more than 30 years ago in 1973 with the mission to Leave No Child Behind, by giving each child a Head Start, a Fair Start, a Safe Start, and a Moral Start through caring communities and families (the phrase No Child Left Behind was later employed as the name for the 2002 Education Act, with which it has no connection). Based in Washington, D.C., the CDF aims to represent all of America's children, no matter how disadvantaged or disempowered they may be.
