CLC currently serves children in Minnesota's foster care system.
Committed to making children’s voices heard, the mission of CLC is to promote the rights and interests of Minnesota’s children, especially children of color and children with disabilities, in the judicial, child welfare, health care, and education systems.
CLC seeks to increase the effectiveness of child-serving systems with the goal of improving the lives of foster care youth. To meet its goal, CLC employs three strategies: (1) representation of abused and neglected children; (2) systemic reform benefiting Minnesota’s children; and (3) education of child advocates.
