Including Family, Youth, and Community Voice at the System Level: Episode 3 Capacity Building Center for States

Episode 3 of the podcast series How We Partner With the Community to Improve Service Options explores the efforts agencies, community collaborative organizations, and others are making to bring families, youth, and communities to the table as they strive to improve the child welfare system. In Kentucky, youth from Voices of the Commonwealth communicate the needs and issues of children in foster care to the state legislature, resource partners, and child welfare agency staff. In the District of Columbia, community collaborative organizations connect regularly with families to find out what's working and identify gaps.
