Making a Difference in a Child’s Life.

For each of the Report Card Categories, The Children's Advocacy Alliance expects to focus its attention on;

· Why are Report Card scores so low?

· Who are the program champions for Children?

· What are the “Best Practices” to consider?

· Where can support be found?

· When can real change occur?

· How much can be saved by investing in the children of Nevada and making a positive impact in their lives?
