The annual event, coordinated by the Missouri Alliance for Children, Youth and Families begins at 8:45 a.m. with registration in the Capitol Rotunda. Child Advocacy Day is an opportunity for children and youth advocates to become better informed about issues, legislation and policies affecting children and provides advocates an opportunity to share their views with state legislators. Attendance at this event continues to increase with more than 800 people attending last year. Child Advocacy Day is free of charge and pre-registration is not required. [Schedule of events]
