The Future of Child Welfare

In Episode 5 of the 100% Future Podcast, host Rubina Cohen engages in a thought-provoking conversation with child welfare experts and change agents Dr. Katherine Ortega Courtney and Dominic Cappello on the critical topic of "The Future of Child Welfare." As the episode unfolds, the guests shed light on the systemic challenges embedded in child welfare systems across the nation and the urgent need for a paradigm shift. Child welfare, they reveal, is often set up to respond only after crises have reached alarming levels, lacking the capacity to engage in systemwide prevention strategies. The data-backed insights shared by Dr. Courtney and Dominic Cappello highlight the prevalence of child neglect and its connection to government-sanctioned poverty and adverse social determinants of health. They emphasize the importance of transitioning from child welfare's culture of fear around data to using it as a tool for continuous improvement. Moreover, the episode underscores that fixing child welfare requires a comprehensive approach, with local communities and the state-level agencies of public health, education, and child welfare coming together to create a shared vision for thriving families and communities. Listeners are invited to explore the ten vital services that prevent child maltreatment and engage with the 100% New Mexico initiative, a movement dedicated to building a brighter future for all. This episode provides a compelling and enlightening perspective on child welfare's challenges and the path to reform, inspiring bold action in designing thriving communities, cities, and counties.
