National Council for Childhood and Adolescence
The National Council for Childhood and Adolescence is a collegial body that functions as a space for the formulation, implementation, coordination and evaluation of policies aimed at guaranteeing the rights of children and adolescents. It functions as a decentralized and autonomous interministerial body, and has representation from the Catholic and Evangelical Churches, the business and trade union sectors, as well as from civil society. In addition to developing and proposing specific legislation and measures for the protection of children, local and regional host bodies and the various stages of the adoption process are also in their charge.
