"100% Community" 05/18/2020 Living From Happiness

<div>Dr. Katherine Ortega Courtney is back, this time with Dominic Cappello, co-directors of the Anna Age Eight Institute. <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Both guests are long-time advocates for childhood safety and health, working within the system. They’re very much about data-driven solutions for such things as childhood trauma, adverse childhood experiences, and building strong resilient communities.</span></p> </div> <div>Katherine and Dominic have co-authored two books, <em>Anna Age Eight</em>, and <em>100% Community: Ensuring 10 Vital Services for Surviving and Thriving</em>.</div> <div> </div> <div><em>100 Community</em> is more than a book, however. It’s a book, a course, an initiative, and a movement. </div> <div> </div> <div>Issues discussed include:</div> <div> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">~~ What are the “surviving services”?</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><em>medical care, behavioral health care, safe housing, secure food and transport to vital services</em></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">~~ What about the “thriving services”?</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><em>parent supports, early childhood learning programs, community schools, youth mentors and job training</em></span></p> <div>Recorded early in the Covid-19 pandemic, in this episode we also talk about vulnerability and hope, and the ways in which we might use this time as a collective re-set button.</div> <div><br /> What are our priorities? What matters the most? <em>Who</em> matters?</div> <div> </div> <div><a href="https://www.annaageeight.org/">the Anna Age Eight Institute website here</a></div> <div> </div> <div><a href="https://melanieharth.com/">Melanie Harth website here</a></div> <div> </div> </div>
