Hi Liz,
I was thinking of the kind of thing that Morgan has achieved in the UK with 
her organisation for refugee mothers babies and mothers and children in the 
child protection system. Her work has been much in the way of providing 
resources and information to the people who make the decisions.

Karleen writes, of the Texas-based religious compound from which hundreds of 
children and mothers have been removed, "Sounds like the type of support 
they need is more in the advocacy side of things...does anyone in the US do 
that sort of thing?" The simple answer is yes ... but it is not that simple. 
In an optimal situation, children/babies who are involved in any sort of 
court proceeding will have a "child advocate" or "guardian ad litem" 
appointed to protect their interests in the court or administrative hearing.
