Overview
Mission
The children's action coalition created infrastructure to support child welfare everywhere. Our website, the coalition platform, served as a hub that facilitated increased connectons between people serving vulnerable children and families across organizations and subject areas - i.e. Lawyers can find medical referrals; social workers can ask questions of researchers. The coalition provided a one-stop shop for lawyers, doctors, program managers, educators, researchers, mental health providers, social workers, and others to find the information they need and share what they know to better serve the youth in their communities, together.
What it reported doing in 2023
The coalition platform was a space for child welfare service providers to connect, collaborate, and leverage each others strengths. The coalition platform provided a private social network; a virtual space to share resources and information; tailored discussion groups; and online community events to discuss challenges we face in our work. By providing all of these services in a single online hub at no cost to members, the coalition platform removed barriers to working together in service of vulnerable children and families as efficiently as possible. In 2023, the childrens action coalition dissolved and the platform was absorbed by nest global (formerly pila global), a nonprofit that provides early childhood education to children in need. The coalition platform lives on in its new organizational home as the nest global hub, as one program in service of a larger mission to support children.
