We are committed to improving the lives of these children and young people, and our vision is for Scotland to be the best place in the world for them to grow up in.
As a coalition we aim to achieve this through campaigning for the provision of a wide range of high-quality, well-resourced and quickly accessible services, tailored to their individual needs.
