(Replay) The Power of Parent Engagement

<p>During this holiday week, we're replaying one of our favorite episodes from last year that focused on the power of parent engagement.<br /><br />In this 2022 podcast conversation, we learned about the parent engagement work of <strong>Child Safety Forward</strong> in Hartford, CT - one of five demonstration sites for the federal demonstration initiative Child Safety Forward. In the discussion, we learned about how the Hartford project has worked with parents to become more comfortable owning and exercising their power – all in service of building a Child and Family Wellbeing System where child protection agencies, community partners, neighbors, and families share a responsibility to ensure children thrive. Joining this discussion to share what they’ve learned were <strong>Chavon Campbell </strong>and <strong>Regina Dyton</strong> (Child Safety Forward) and parent advocates <strong>Georgina Fuentes </strong>and <strong>Kayla Waters</strong>.</p><p><strong>Resources and Footnotes</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.alliance1.org/web/our-work/safety-resilience/child-safety-forward.aspx" target="_blank">Child Safety Forward</a></li><li><a href="https://collectiveimpactforum.org/resource/sustaining-impact-for-the-long-term-with-child-safety-forward/"><strong>Sustaining Impact for the Long-Term with Child Safety Forward</strong></a></li><li><a href="https://www.social-current.org/reports/child-safety-forward-implementation-study-final-report/">Child Safety Forward Implementation Study Final Report</a></li><li><a href="https://www.social-current.org/2023/11/utilizing-collective-impact-to-reduce-child-abuse-and-neglect-fatalities/">Utilizing Collective Impact to Reduce Child Abuse and Neglect Fatalities</a></li></ul><p><strong>More on Collective Impact</strong></p><p>Infographic: <a href="https://www.collectiveimpactforum.org/what-is-collective-impact/" target="_blank">What is Collective Impact?</a><br />Resource List: <a href="https://www.collectiveimpactforum.org/getting-started/" target="_blank">Getting Starte
