“Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.” We are thrilled to share the success of our collaboration with the NJ4S Hunterdon, Somerset, and Warren Hub. Through this partnership, we are empowering partner organizations to provide critical grief support services to students in their communities. 💡 Training Success: Our recent training session focused on equipping the NJ4S Hub with the tools and knowledge needed to implement our Good Grief Groups Curriculum. These peer support groups offer a Tier 2 intervention, providing students with a space to navigate their grief and reduce isolation. Why This Partnership Matters: Enhanced Reach: By partnering with NJ4S, we can extend our services to schools and students we might not reach on our own. Empowered Organizations: Training local hubs means more professionals are equipped to support the emotional well-being of students. Community Impact: Together, we are building a network of support that strengthens our communities and ensures no student has to grieve alone. Thank you to the NJ4S Hunterdon, Somerset, and Warren Hub for partnering with us and helping amplify our impact. Together, we are making a difference! 👉 For more information on how to bring these free services to your school, visit https://ow.ly/aZ2b50StYVe #Grief #GriefSupport #GoodGriefNJ #NJ4S #YouthWellness #MentalHealth #CommunitySupport #GriefSupport #FreeServices #StudentSupport #HunterdonCounty #SomersetCounty #WarrenCounty

I have a passion project that helps student athletes and parents with resources on mental health, alcohol, and drug prevention, educational, and other resources, @NILInsight. I recently had an awesome conversation with the Executive Director of Champions for Literacy, Jason Baker, who leads this amazing non-profit that utilizes the power of sports to impact childhood reading. They partner with sports teams, athletes at all levels, and corporate partners to ensure all kids are inspired to become great readers. Their core principles are founded on: 1. Reading is transformative. 2. Sports have the unique ability to rally communities around this cause. Please visit www.championsforlit.org or email info@championsforlit.org for more information. “Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body."

🌟 Embracing the Torch of Change: Your Role in a Historical Movement 🌟 During the Getting to the Grants Summit Drayton Jackson had us to reflect on a pivotal moment in history – the early 1940s. Organizations like the YMCA, Salvation Army, and National Jewish Welfare Board didn't just offer support; they laid the foundation for a global movement of community care and support. Today, as we face challenges of housing, mental health, and equitable access to resources, the torch they carried is now in our hands. Why attend the Getting to the Grants Summit? This isn't just an event; it's a convergence of minds and missions. As a VIP, you gain more than entry – you gain a repository of knowledge with exclusive access to all session replays, a vital tool for anyone committed to making a difference. 🔗 [www.gettingtothegrants.com] Join us.

Dads are essential, and we're making a difference! I'm thrilled to introduce you to the Engaging Fathers and Young Men program, an initiative I'm proud to lead as Director at CCSI. Why Fathers Matter: Studies show children with engaged fathers have better emotional, social, and academic outcomes. Yet, barriers often prevent fathers from fully participating in their children's lives. That's where we come in! Engaging Fathers and Young Men breaks down these barriers by: Building a network of support: Connecting fathers with resources and community organizations. Fostering trust and understanding: Collaborating with caseworkers and agencies. Promoting family-friendly events: Creating a sense of belonging and togetherness. The results are powerful: Stronger father-child bonds Improved family well-being A more positive community impact Join us in making a difference!

How can schools better support unhoused students? KQED published an article featuring our 2020 report on student homelessness in California about the challenges that unhoused students face, how those challenges affect their education, and what schools can do to support them. Although the challenges these students face are complex, schools have the unique ability to be service hubs for healthcare and social services, supporting students and families in ways that one system can’t do alone.

How can place-based evaluation support parents and families?   Last month, we shared our evaluation of the Lambeth Early Action Partnership (LEAP), funded by The National Lottery Community Fund and supported by National Children's Bureau. Today we’re excited to follow up with a new supplement: Impact of Lambeth Early Action Partnership on Parents: Combined Service Analysis.   This report provides a powerful look at how LEAP services contributed to improved parental mental #wellbeing and positive, sensitive, and responsive parenting.   Led by Sean Manzi and Ellen Goddard, this study takes a broader approach—moving beyond individual services to explore how a place-based, systems change programme can have a wider impact on families.   ❓ Curious about how LEAP has made a difference for parents? Explore the full report below! 🚩 https://lnkd.in/gWbG9fGi #evaluation #community #services #systems #systemchange #policy #parents #family #children #impact #research
