Description:
Every Disabled Child Matters (EDCM) is the campaign to get rights and justice for every disabled child.

Aims:
Every Disabled Child Matters wants:

• Families with disabled children to have ordinary lives.
• Disabled children to matter as much as all other children.
• Disabled children and their families to be fully included in society.
• All disabled children and their families to get the right services and support - no matter where they live.
• Poverty amongst disabled children and their families to be cut by 50% by 2010 and eliminated by 2020.
• An education system that meets the needs of each child and enables them to reach their full potential.
• Disabled children and their families to shape the way that services are planned, commissioned and delivered.

Activities:
EDCM is an inclusive campaign. They support and represent thousands of disabled children, young people and families. Through CDC and SEC the campaign represents hundreds of organisations, professionals, disabled people working with and for disabled children, young people and their families.
