New Mexico Voices for Children is a progressive, nonpartisan advocacy organization founded in 1987. Our mission is to eliminate child poverty and improve the health and well-being of New Mexico’s children, families and communities. Our New Mexico Children’s Charter outlines policy priorities and specific goals, which are focused by four core values: Human Rights (equality and human dignity); Healthy Communities (affordable health care, quality education, and safe neighborhoods); Economic Justice (economic opportunity and fair taxes); Civic Participation (collective and individual voices).
