The COVID-19 pandemic deeply impacted the child care and early education (CCEE) workforce. NORC’s new snapshot produced with OPRE examines the risk of depression as reported by over 800k center-based child care and early education (CCEE) workers in 2019, 2021, and 2022. Learn more about the mental health and well-being of center-based CCEE teachers, assistant teachers, and aides by race and ethnicity for each year. https://lnkd.in/etHRHWRK

A new NPR article highlights the long-term health impacts of housing instability on children, reinforcing the critical importance of our housing work at Georgia Appleseed. Research shows that teens who experienced housing insecurity in early childhood report worse physical and mental health, including higher levels of depression and anxiety. This underscores why our initiatives, like advocating for better housing conditions and supporting families facing eviction, are essential. By addressing housing insecurity, we help create stable environments where children can thrive both academically and emotionally.

Let me be clear here - this is not research about 'parents' in treatments so I am baffled why these ppl think they know anything about this group! This is work using electronic records to understand characteristics (yes records not real live ppl). This is about care proceedings and treatment. Its important but they've clearly missed why! They seem to get confused a lot like misunderstanding the word innovation. This is what was written about them - this is records. This does include fathers in a very brief way but I think you'll find it's about mothers really.... insisting on saying parents in treatment suggests something that just is not true. Will they answer the questions like .... do you understand what research is and the difference between research about parents in treatment and using records written about parents involved in care proceedings and treatment? You can transform trust about anyones child but theirs but pause a minute before you make a tit of yourself - if you lot knew what you were doing - that means you intentionally left them to burn, you intentionally discarded their kids - you intentionally punished and shamed these mothers and if you intentionally did those things ... then you would know my intentions for that. Was this post written by a woman? By a mother during care proceedings in treatment? Have you read it and understood it and have you taken the important theme - engagement - you know the thing you skip over. I'm in this to fight so they get a fair shot - you're just leap in disguise. If you want to get rid of me then do something better for them - but what are you at the centre of, who is the justice for and look shall I just be really clear - if all you do is talk to ex users that means it cannot be anything new - you do understand that don't you? Stop using this group unless you're going to help them - what was it you thought was important? If you thought they were of any importance - do something that matters.

We have learned a lot about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) for the past two decades. More recently, there is research generated about mitigating factors, those protective factors that give us resilience. These have been termed Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs). This research is promising as it gives us a vision for making systemic change that ensures our families and communities have the support to withstand challenges and trauma. At the same time, disparities exist in one's experience of these protective factors. A newly released study by conducted by The HOPE National Resource Center and partners, published in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) showed that income levels, sexual orientation and gender identity, and racial background influence PCEs. The study states that 38% of adults with a yearly income of $15,000 or less reported high PCE scores versus 62% of adults with a yearly income of $50,000 or greater. This is a statistic we can do something about when there is the political and social will. There is enough for everyone and our youth should not have to suffer the chronic duress of not having the resources they need to be well. What were some Positive Childhood Experiences you enjoyed while growing up? What do you wish you had access to? Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/g7EsUf7B

We recommend reading this important research about parents in treatment for substance use Nuffield Foundation. Great to see the research calls for integrated substance misuse & social care services to ensure a better, holistic response to needs of parents - which is what FDAC does. https://ow.ly/gi5x50Sfj4H
