Voices was a U.S. nonpartisan, national organization that advocated for the well-being of children at the federal, state and local levels of government.
It addressed areas such as early childhood education, health, juvenile justice, child welfare, tax and budget decisions.
Voices for America's Children officially closed its doors in June 2013, although groups of former members continue their work at the state and local level.

In September of the same year President Obama appointed William Bentley, former CEO of Voices, to head Family and Youth Services Bureau.
