(1)

a comprehensive action plan for addressing the needs of children living in adversity should be sanctioned by the highest level of the Government of the United States;

reducing the number of children who experience violence, exploitation, or abuse; and

(C)

eliminating unnecessary duplication and contradictory approaches within the Government of the United States; and
