    Supporting Fathers as Caregivers with David Cozart

    Join us this month as we sit down with David Cozart, the Chief Visionary Officer for the Commonwealth Center for Fathers and Families. In this insightful episode, we delve into how to support fathers as caregivers for children experiencing mental health and/or substance use challenges. Discover the unique role of a Chief Visionary Officer and how this innovative title fosters out-of-the-box thinking to ensure fathers are included as full partners within a child’s life and as caregivers of their children. David shares his expertise with Gail Cormier (NFSTAC Project Director), on collaboration, collective impact, and policy change, that highlights the crucial need for state-level policymakers to collaborate with community organizations. Together, they explore how to develop holistic programs that support families and recognize the evolving definition of family, emphasizing the importance of including fathers as valuable assets in all plans.   As tradition, The Family Collective asks each guest, “What advice would you give yourself starting out in this industry?”  Hear as David reflects on his journey and offers advice to his younger self starting out in this field.

    Remarkably Resilient Together with Kathleen Harnish McKune & Tim DeWeese

    Our guests joining us today in our very first episode are from “Remarkably Resilient Together” – an organization that empowers individuals of all ages to strengthen their resilience by providing techniques for emotional regulation and self-care practices. We’ll also hear about their lived experience – informed by the neuroscience of trauma.  We’ll meet Kathleen Harnish McKune one of three sisters who grew up in a childhood home with multi-generational incest, abuse, and neglect. The Harnish sisters broke that cycle - the neuroscience of trauma helped them see HOW they did that. Their 2019 book, "Remarkably Resilient: Community Matters", shares their journeys. This lived experience is complemented by, Tim DeWeese, Director, Johnson County Mental Health Center, Kansas - one of the non-profit partners working with the Harnish sisters in this community campaign to "Empower individuals with the practices of emotional regulation and self-care". This matters because we are all more resilient humans when we are emotionally regulated with full resilience cups.
