Children's Advocacy Days 2024

The 2024 Children’s Advocacy Days theme, “Bee” the Change; Create a Buzz for Children and Youth, will explore innovative ways to positively impact the lives of children and youth. This year’s theme draws inspiration from the industrious and collaborative nature of the small but incredibly impactful honeybee, symbolizing our collective responsibility to nurture and support the growth of the next generation of Tennesseans. CAD serves as a hub, one might say a hive of ideas, bringing together children’s advocates to create a buzz around strategies, research and best practices that empower and uplift those whose work benefits children and youth.

Children’s Advocacy Days is not just an opportunity to share knowledge and expertise; it's a call to action. By the end of this event, we hope attendees will leave inspired and equipped with practical strategies to continue to make a meaningful impact on the lives of children and youth. Together, let's create a buzz that resonates far beyond CAD’s walls, ensuring that every child and young person has the support and opportunities they need to thrive.
