Our Children’s Law Center community is unique – a beautiful kaleidoscope of children, youth and adults with a diverse set of talents and experiences. Together, we are working toward a bold vision: a world in which all children have a strong foundation of family, health and education – and are free from poverty, trauma, racism and other forms of oppression.

Turning our shared vision into reality won’t happen quickly. To sustain the energy to keep fighting for justice, we need to make time to rest and renew our spirits. That’s why we asked children and families across our community to share what brings them comfort and joy and featured their photos in our 2024 calendar.

Whether it’s snuggling a favorite stuffed animal, riding a scooter or building with Legos – what brings each of us comfort or joy is as varied and diverse as the people who make up our community. Click here to view our 2024 calendar.

I hope you can take a moment to pause and reflect on what brings you comfort and joy – and feel energized to continue working toward a brighter future for DC children and families.

With gratitude, 

Judith Sandalow

Executive Director
