Creating Thriving Families and Communities in a 21st Century Child Well-Being System.

This event is free of charge.  Please feel free to share the attached flyer with your friends and colleagues.  Our theme for this year is Creating Thriving Families and Communities in a 21st Century Child Well-Being System.

The convening will include the following:

*  A presentation from our lead national trainer, Maureen Hollocker, and members of the training team on the protective factors framework, using resources from the Alliance’s highly regarded national protective factors training, Bringing the Protective Factors to Life in Your Work. If you would like a refresher on the protective factors and/ or an introduction for yourself or others, you will want to be sure to participate.

*  Margaret Hunt, Senior Director, National Partnerships, Casey Family Programs and Natalie Towns, Prevention Section Director, Georgia Division of Family and Children Services will join us for a discussion on Communities of Hope, a concept developed by Casey Family Programs, and a look at a powerful example of this work in the state of Georgia. Children and families can best thrive when they have the opportunity to live and grow in caring and supportive communities and this work helps make that possible.

During this challenging time, it is important for us to focus attention on what we can be doing together to keep our families and communities strong and this Virtual Convening will help us continue to move forward in that direction.
