CHILD USA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit think tank that is dedicated to protecting children and preventing child abuse. The organization was founded on the work of two leaders in the field: Marci Hamilton and Rita Swan. Marci Hamilton is an expert on child sex abuse, statutes of limitations, and religious defenses that may lead to neglect. She has filed numerous pro bono amicus briefs and advised legislators in the pursuit of statute of limitation reform. Rita Swan, who passed away in 2022, was a pioneer for children's rights to health and medical care after experiencing a personal tragedy.
CHILD USA's mission is to employ in-depth legal analysis and cutting-edge social science research to protect children, prevent future abuse and neglect, and bring justice to survivors. They achieve this mission by fighting for the rights of children to be free from child sex abuse through legal reform, advocating for their access to medical care, and working towards ensuring every child's right to a quality education.
The organization values courage, purpose, integrity, justice, teamwork, and empathy in their work towards promoting justice for victims of child abuse and neglect. They also have a sister organization called CHILD USADVOCACY that works in tandem with them.
