CHILD USA is a small nonprofit think tank based in Philadelphia and affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania. It conducts legal and social science research at the intersection of law, medicine, and policy to address child abuse and neglect. The organization identifies deficiencies in current law and public policy, develops better approaches, and seeks to facilitate laws and policies that protect children. Its work targets policymakers, legislators, advocates, and other public policy stakeholders seeking to strengthen child welfare protections. A notable recent development is the appointment of Hillary M. Nappi to the organization's Board of Directors in July 2023.
