Providing Economic and Concrete Supports
A strengths-based approach to child and family well-being
This important convening will focus on the importance of creating stronger economic and concrete supports for families. Clare Anderson will discuss the evidence related to economic and concrete supports for preventing involvement of families in the child welfare system. She will share how economic supports, such as childcare subsidies, Medicaid, housing subsidies, and tax credits have reduced child maltreatment rates and foster care entries. State and federal policy options will be discussed to inform strategies and policy agendas. Clare promotes the voices of parents in the Birth Parent National Network when she frequently shares the publication What Parents Say About…Building a 21st Century Community-Based Approach to Strengthening Families.
