Who we are and what we do

Child First Policy Center is a parent-led advocacy organization focused on protecting children and the environments where they learn. We work through research, public education and policy engagement in Utah and the nation to ensure classroom decisions support kids' safety, focus, and development—so parents can trust what's shaping their children's education.

Protecting students in the digital age

​Proposed Utah legislation: The SAFE Act and the Balance Act
Parents are doing what they’ve always done—helping with homework, worrying about focus, noticing when learning feels harder than it should. But today’s classrooms are shaped by technology decisions parents rarely see and often can’t question. This Utah legislative session, two proposed bills, the SAFE Act and the Balance Act aim to restore clarity, accountability, and learning first standards—so kids are supported, not distracted.
