Standing Up Your Prevention Program: Advice From the Field
Watch the recorded webinars and listen to the podcasts in this series to hear how colleagues in different jurisdictions are engaging and collaborating with partners to shift their child welfare systems towards prevention.
In three recorded webinars, leaders from North Carolina, Washington, and Indiana child welfare agencies, partner agencies, funders, communities, and families discuss how their states are implementing prevention strategies and programs. Their approaches focus on supporting healthy families and building family protective factors as a primary method of keeping children safe and preventing child abuse and neglect. In the short podcast episodes paired with each recorded webinar, presenters give practical advice about building a shared vision and making their partnerships work.
Child welfare agency leaders, managers, and others can use these resources to connect with key partners in the family-serving system, open a dialogue about creating a shared vision, gather the commitment needed to shift the system toward prevention, and identify strategies other jurisdictions are using to make this change.
