Pennsylvanias Child Advocate Office has been vacant for over a year, prompting advocates, survivors, and community members to rally at the state Capitol. The rally was in response to the death of twelve-year-old Malinda Hoagland, who suffered abuse and starvation despite two ChildLine reports. Advocates demand an independent office with stronger oversight, better staffing, and access to records outside the Department of Human Services. Governor Josh Shapiros office agrees and plans to work with lawmakers to make it official.
