CRANE pursues three main outcomes:

  • Children are in Families
  • Children are in Safe Spaces
  • Children are in Education

The Children Belong in Families group focuses on getting children out of institutions and back into family based care. Institutional care causes developmental damage, including retardation in physical growth, cognitive and brain development, and emotional and behavioral development.
