Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood

From an e-mail announcement:

To reflect its growing membership and commitment to positive action, the coalition formerly known as Stop Commercial Exploitation of Children (SCEC) has renamed itself the CAMPAIGN FOR A COMMERCIAL-FREE CHILDHOOD (CCFC).

To learn more about the name change and what we’re doing, we invite you to visit our brand new website:

http://www.commercialfreechildhood.org

The new site not only looks great, but includes some exciting new features such as printable fact sheets about marketing to children, developed with our Quad Cities chapter CCFC/QC

And don’t forget our upcoming summit:

Consuming Kids: How Marketing Undermines Children’s Health, Values & Behavior

Join us to hear the country’s leading activists and scholars discuss the commercialization of childhood and what we can do to stop it. Network. Find out how you can help!
