Center for Vulnerable Population Protection

CNA's Center for Vulnerable Population Protection is committed to protecting underserved communities and people who are at risk due to age, income, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, health disparities, mental health, refugee or immigration status, or other vulnerabilities.

We are dedicated to helping our local, state and federal clients identify solutions to address the unique needs of vulnerable people. Children and the elderly are two of the most vulnerable populations because they are often dependent upon others for their care.

Delilah Barton, Director, Center for Vulnerable Population Protection
