| Introduction | I care passionately about policies and practices affecting the well being of our children. I didn't start out knowing this is what I want to do with my life. After graduating from Harvard Law School in 1985, I worked for elite firms on Wall Street and San Francisco before becoming a partner in a commercial firm in Kansas City. I started the firm of Scott Wasserman & Associates LLC so that my associates and I could work exclusively for children and the adults who love them. I chair the board for the Christian Foundation for Children and Aging (www.cfcausa.org), an international sponsorship organization that assists poor children throughout the world. I serve on the board of Turner House Children's Clinic, a pediatric medical clinic for uninsured children. I also serve on the board of Johnson & Wyandotte County CASA, which provides court appointed special advocates for children. I chair the Independent Review Board of the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas to investigate alleged sexual abuse of minors by priests. I co-founded TeenLink, a peer to peer agency that helps teens counsel other teens against dependency on drugs and alcohol. |
