Members of the Children’s Policy Coalition worked together to develop the set of survey questions posed to the Gubernatorial and U.S. Senate candidates.  The questions are designed to enable candidates to share their views on a wide range of state and federal child and family issues.  Many members of the Coalition have policy agendas of their own, often focusing upon specific areas of child and family policy.  Most have websites that provide much more information about their work.
