US: Children’s Rights Names Shereen White As its First Policy Director
Imprint – August 10, 2021
Children’s Rights, a national nonprofit perhaps best known for suing states to improve public systems serving children, has named Shereen White as its first policy director. White currently serves as a senior staff attorney for the New York City-based organization, which has handled at least 25 class action lawsuits since 1995. The organization doesn’t just respond to enforce the legal rights of children after they’ve been violated, but increasingly has turned to shaping law and policy on the front end. White’s appointment as Children’s Rights first-ever director of advocacy and policy reflects her growing influence on the group’s mission.
