Webinar recording: "Resources for children with cross-border case needs" Are you confident in your ability to find, engage, or place a child with family outside of the United States? If you’re like the majority of child welfare professionals, the answer is: probably not. More info here: https://ow.ly/bqlI50SWshN #ChildWelfare

Protecting children's safety is non-negotiable. It's our duty to create a world where every child feels safe and secure. Safe Passage is the only organization in Minnesota, and one of a handful nationally, that is pushing back against currently dominant child welfare practices that favor the interests of parents and communities over the safety and best interests of children. Together, we can make it happen. #ChildrensSafety #ProtectOurFuture https://lnkd.in/gbvNnQd6

In light of the growing body of evidence that economic and concrete supports can keep children safely at home and prevent entry to foster care, more and more jurisidictions are building flexible funding into their child welfare prevention programs. While models vary, these interventions recognize that family needs differ, that they often require an urgent response, and that child welfare programs have a responsibility to ensure that poverty does not become the basis for more intrusive intervention in families’ lives. This Casey Family Programs strategy brief explains how three states (Indiana, Kentucky and Wisconsin) are responding to this challenge. https://lnkd.in/dga3vQTd

Did you know that children and families of color are more likely to experience poverty and come to the attention of the child welfare system for child abuse and neglect? In fact, over 50% of black children will experience a child welfare investigation before the age of 18. We can't ignore the systemic issues that are causing this to happen. We need to change how our society values and cares for all children and families. This means addressing inequity and injustice, so all families benefit from policies, programs, and systems that ensure access to the resources and support they need to thrive before a crisis happens. As the nation’s oldest and largest organization dedicated to preventing child abuse and neglect, PCA America is connecting families, communities, elected officials, businesses, and prevention workers across the country to create safe, stable, and nurturing environments for all children.
