The Mission of the OCA


Our Mission is to improve the safety, health and well-being of Massachusetts children by promoting positive change in public policy and practice.

 

Our Vision is that every child is safe and nurtured in a permanent home and that every family is supported and strengthened within the community.

 

Our Focus is on at-risk children who are served by the Commonwealth child welfare and juvenile justice systems.
