Children’s Advocacy Week 2025
2025-03-03 08:00 - 2025-03-07 17:00 | Kentucky Youth Advocates, 10200 Linn Station Road, Louisville, KY, 40223, United States
For more than 20 years, advocates for kids have gathered in Frankfort for Children’s Advocacy Day to fill the halls of the Capitol and ask their elected officials to step up for all Kentucky kids. The critical mass of advocates and youth in the Capitol building has led to many policy wins and raising awareness of issues facing kids and their families. As we’ve transitioned to Children’s Advocacy Week, there are even more opportunities to connect with legislators and other advocates during the state legislative session.
Children’s Advocacy Week 2025 will be March 3-7th, with the Day at the Capitol on Wednesday, March 5th!

The September Quarterly Meeting will be from 10:00am – 12:00pm ET, followed immediately by the AIDPH Veteran Oral Health Virtual Road Tour from 12:00pm – 1:00pm ET.
