Children at Risk Action Network (CRANE),

As a network, we aim to achieve more by working together for children than by working in isolation.
For the first years of CRANE’s life, the network strove to be the strongest and most effective Christian

change for children. By the 10th anniversary, the network had established that platform. Therefore we
are now looking to make our unique contribution much clearer and much more challenging.
