Keeping Fathers Strong during COVID-19

Family-strengthening professionals strive to support all members of a family. The reality, though, is that supports offered are often targeted to and resonate more with mothers and other female-identifying caregivers. That’s why the Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families invited speakers to share what life during the pandemic has been like from the perspective of fathers and other male-identifying caregivers at October's Keeping Families Strong during COVID-19 conversation. 

Denver Indian Center and Colorado Department of Human Services have each received an award for the FIRE Fatherhood Grant program from the United States Department of Human Services. Office of Early Childhood presented on the grant received by Colorado Department of Human Services, sharing that it will fund seven sites across Colorado to work toward the goal of strengthening fathers’ well-being and preventing child maltreatment through wrap-around services and supports. Their grant will focus on healthy marriage, responsible parenting, and economic stability. Any father with a child under the age of 24 will be eligible to participate, with a focus on certain groups, such as male caregivers living in poverty with newborns, military and veteran fathers, unemployed fathers, and fathers re-entering after incarceration. If you would like to learn more about the grant received by Colorado Department of Human services, please see the presentation slides or reach out to Aaron Miller. If you would like to learn more about the grant received by Denver Indian Center, please contact Thomas G. Allen, Jr. 

Cameron Lundstrom, Parent Advocate at the Office of Respondent Parents’ Counsel and founder of A Nap & A Sandwich, discussed his role representing parents involved in the child welfare system and sharing his own experiences with other parents to help them address challenges and make their own decisions through peer support coaching. Cameron shared that providing this critical support of fathers in a nearly all-virtual way during the pandemic has been challenging, but he has been able to adapt.

Adam Combs and Adrian Nuñez shared their experience starting a Circle of Fathers group amidst the pandemic. They decided to start a Circle of Fathers group with the goal of providing a space for fathers to support each other and to show them that it is okay to make mistakes and ask for help. They planned to host the group in-person and offer child care and dinner, but COVID-19 had other plans. As is the case with so many things this year, they had to adapt to instead hosting the groups virtually. While not ideal, a participant in the group shared that the group has helped him tremendously in feeling like he is not alone and in being able to share and hear valuable ideas on how to deal with certain challenges. 

A key takeaway from the perspectives that each of these speakers shared was that fathers and other male caregivers need supports and spaces that are specifically intended and designed for them.

FOSTERING Social Connections for Parents during COVID-19

Picture
Surveys and focus groups conducted with Colorado families demonstrated that Colorado parents were already struggling with social connectedness and asking for support even before COVID-19 impacted Colorado, and it is likely that this reality has only been exacerbated by the pandemic. With this in mind, this month’s Keeping Families Strong COVID-19 conversation focused on building social connections. Illuminate Colorado highlighted Colorado COnnected, designed to give Coloradans the inspiration, knowledge and tools to strengthen social connection among parents. 

Katie Facchinello, communications director for Illuminate Colorado shared that "Colorado has been examining social norms associated with safe, stable, nurturing relationships and environments for children for many years. Asking questions about actual and perceived values, beliefs and behaviors associated with the prevention of child maltreatment and looking to close the gap between reality and misperception across different levels of community systems. While 50% of Colorado parents think other parents ask for help with parenting, the reality is that only one in five parents in Colorado reported asking for help with parenting and one in five said they have no one to turn to for day to day emotional support with raising children. These results have raised red flags dating back to 2016, long before the pandemic impacted Coloradans’ lives in so many ways. " 

Town hall participants received a preview of the now LIVE Colorado COnnected blog which will highlight ways organizations and individuals are using the Colorado COnnected tools and building social connections right now.  

"Creating social connection between community members these days requires getting connected online and offline carefully. According to community organizations in Colorado that have successfully brought community members together prior to the onset of the pandemic, individuals are generally more responsive to in-person invitations to events and programs. However, the need to physically distance and adhere to public health orders while still fostering social connections among parents requires innovation, creativity and a public will to prioritize keeping families strong right now" continued Facchinello.

Stephanie Henderson, director of child and family health and well-being for Early Childhood Partnership of Adams County (ECPAC) also shared how they have adapted their own efforts to foster social connections among parents during COVID-19 by hosting  weekly virtual parent groups  in English and in Spanish as well as a weekly Circle of Parents in Recovery group. Additionally, ECPAC is currently engaging in a campaign to shift social norms in their community around asking for help and reaching out to connect. Beth Crist, youth & family services consultant for the Colorado State Library also shared the many ways in which libraries are uniquely poised to and traditionally foster social connections between and provide support for families, sparking examples from other libraries in attendance about ways they have adapted their programming during the pandemic. Jefferson County Public Library started a Work From Home Facebook group and will be hosting a virtual booth at the Help Kids Thrive Conference and an outdoor StoryWalk®. Poudre River Public Library District is piloting a public office hours program to support caregivers with their children’s education and hosting activities for all ages, such as Brain Breaks and ‘Art-ober’. 

Please find detailed notes from this month’s conversation here.

NEWS RELEASE: NATIONAL LEADERS CHOOSE COLORADO TO PROVE A BETTER SYSTEM AIMED AT PREVENTING CHILD MALTREATMENT IS POSSIBLE

​Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families Reimagines the Village

Picture
DENVER, CO (September 9, 2020) Colorado is one of four states chosen by the U.S. Children’s Bureau, Casey Family Programs, the Annie E. Casey Foundation and Prevent Child Abuse America® to participate in a national effort to prove it is possible to fundamentally rethink child welfare by creating the conditions for strong, thriving families where children are free from harm.

This first-of-its-kind effort — Thriving Families, Safer Children: A National Commitment to Well-Being (Thriving Families)— will work across the public, private and philanthropic sectors to assist jurisdictions in developing more just and equitable systems that benefit all children and families and break harmful intergenerational cycles of trauma and poverty.

The Thriving Families effort will include diverse community stakeholders — most importantly families with lived expertise — to help them discern and develop the supports, resources, services and approaches to meet the unique needs of their families and promote the conditions to help them thrive.  

“Families are our greatest asset in ensuring that all children are safe and have what they need to thrive and succeed — especially now, during the coronavirus crisis,” said Dr. Melissa T. Merrick, president and CEO of Prevent Child Abuse America. “This extraordinary moment provides an opportunity to shift the narrative from child welfare to child well-being. We must leverage this new way of thinking to develop and deliver effective and impactful community-based resources that assist families in ways which strengthen and help keep them together.”
Colorado will join teams from Nebraska, South Carolina and California/LA County in this multiyear commitment by receiving intensive technical support and resources from national partners to realize the creation of more just, equitable and humane child and family well-being systems.

Colorado’s team began forming in 2019 and work is underway through an improvement collaborative known as the Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families (the Colorado Partnership). Partners are approaching this work differently than other states, as a county-administered human services system, by embracing local and creative solutions to prevent abuse or neglect of children before it ever occurs. Colorado’s approach uses the socio-ecological model stressing a shared responsibility within local and state systems, well-beyond child welfare, including, but not limited to, public health, economic development and health care systems. 

“The Colorado Partnership is placing an emphasis on empowering families to be a part of this transformative work. Nothing about us without us. Together, we are focused on ensuring that every community in Colorado is creating the conditions where children are healthy, valued and thriving,” said Heather Hicks, a parent of two young children and one of many parents and caregivers involved in the leadership and workgroups of the Colorado Partnership. 

The Colorado Partnership is focusing on three key priority areas:
  • Aligning funding streams, programs, and outcomes within state and county human services, public health, and health care systems; 
  • Strengthening services and support throughout pregnancy and the first year of parenting; and
  • ​Changing community norms to increase social connections and community support for families. 

“It does take a village to raise a child. Child maltreatment prevention happens when friends, family, neighbors, government agencies, health care providers, community organizations, associations and employers strengthen families. This pandemic is shining a light on how challenging it is to parent children and everyone needs to ask themselves how they can help parents weather life’s challenges right now,” said Jade Woodard executive director of Illuminate Colorado (Illuminate), a statewide nonprofit working to strengthen families, organizations and communities to prevent child maltreatment. 

Illuminate is the backbone of the Colorado Partnership and the home of the Colorado Chapter of Prevent Child Abuse America®. “With support from national partners, Colorado will have an opportunity to serve as a national model for reimagining a more just and equitable village to effectively prevent child maltreatment, identifying how we can all wrap around families in the process,” continued Woodard.  

The Colorado Partnership is growing every day and includes more than 150 members and supporters from organizations representing multiple state and county government agencies, Colorado Children’s Trust Fund & Colorado Early Childhood Leadership Commission, Colorado Human Services Directors Association and Colorado Association of Local Public Health Officials, research and evaluation partners, nonprofit agencies, philanthropic partners, as well as parents and caregivers.

Social Connections in the Time of COVID-19

Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families knows that building Protective Factors is the key to keeping families strong. It is no secret that COVID-19 has presented challenges to building and maintaining strong families. In particular, the physical distancing necessary for keeping ourselves and our communities as safe as possible during the pandemic poses a unique challenge for creating and fostering the social connections that are imperative to strong families. ​
Picture
With many of the traditional ways in which families would connect with each other rendered unsafe by the pandemic, family-strengthening professionals and organizations have turned to creative ways for promoting social connections between families during this time. Early Childhood Partnership of Adams County hosts weekly virtual parent groups with the main goal of fostering social connection.

​During these groups, families can ask questions, share concerns, and simply connect with one another. The facilitator creatively works to keep participants engaged through facilitation of virtual activities, such as scanning the pages of a book to share and read over Zoom together

Picture
​Home Wanted (The Boulder County Regional Housing Partnership) hosted a “Home Together” creativity contest, in which families were invited to share art, music, recipes, and stories from their time at home during COVID-19. They then shared the submissions with everyone during an “award ceremony” that was held on Facebook Live, via Zoom. 
​


It is inspiring to see these and other examples of how those who work to strengthen families are adapting and finding ways to foster social connections between families amidst a situation that makes doing so inherently challenging. Building from some of these ideas and with the goal of supporting others with creating similar opportunities in their communities, the CPTF Calling All Families Work Group is working to develop a list of ideas and tools for hosting these types of activities as well as guides to support families with fostering their own social connections outside of these structured events. ​

If you’d like to be involved in the CPTF Calling All Families Work Group, please reach out to 
Cassie Davis.  Have your own ideas or examples of ways to safely foster social connections between families during this time? Share them in the comments below!
​

P.S. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to engage with hundreds of family support professionals from across Colorado during the free, virtual Strengthening Colorado Families and Communities Conference being hosted September 28-30, 2020. This conference is a joint collaboration across the family support continuum, from prevention and public health, through restoration and child welfare. The final day will highlight the work of Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families. ​

In case you missed last week's conversation to keep families strong during this COVID-19 pandemic...

Picture
Family-strengthening professionals from across Colorado came together earlier this week for the seventh in an ongoing series of conversations intended to provide a space to discuss successes and challenges, share resources, and collaborate to problem-solve ongoing and evolving challenges of supporting families during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Family Tree shared the ways that they have adapted their programs that serve children and youth, support families experiencing homelessness, and support and advocate for families impacted by domestic violence during the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, they shared how their SafeCare program, which provides in-home care and education to parents with children 5 and under, has adapted to dropping off resources to families and then conducting their home visits and education related to safety, health, and parent-child interactions virtually. 


They also raised questions that are on all of our minds:
  • How do we support parents in connecting with each other? 
  • How do we support staff to enable them to continue supporting families, especially as many will soon be navigating how to homeschool their own children while continuing to work?

From virtual parent groups, to drive-thru resource distribution for families, and creative ideas for prioritizing self-care for employees, those who joined the call shared a wealth of ideas and resources on how to address these important questions. 

To find a detailed record of the information and resources shared by Family Tree and other attendees, see the notes from the conversation or visit the FAQ to find a running list of resources to help strengthen families right now. 

We will be taking a summer break from these conversations in August and will resume them in September. If you would like to ensure that you receive the email update in August and information on the next conversation in September, please be sure to subscribe HERE. If you are interested in sharing how your organization is adapting your support of families during COVID-19 at one of these conversations, please reach out to Cassie Davis.

UPDATE: Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families Leadership Structure

Picture

​The Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families has an exciting and important update about our governance structure. It takes all of us to work collaboratively across the State of Colorado to create the conditions for strong families and communities where children are healthy, valued, and thriving. To our members who have gotten us to this point--Thank you to all for your continued commitment to the vision of the Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families. As our efforts move from planning to action, the leadership of the Partnership wanted to share key shifts in our structure to better support the future work:
  • Sunsetting the CPTF Steering Committee and Co-Chair Roles: We're so grateful for the leadership and contributions of our steering committee members and co-chairs as part of the initial planning and establishment of CPTF. As we enter the next phase of our work, co-chairs and steering committee members have discussed the need to create a more nimble leadership space with more prominent and integrated family and community voice. As we sunset the steering committee and co-chair roles, we look forward to past members engaging in our brand new CPTF spaces to continue moving the work forward.

  • Shifting to the CPTF Leadership Team: To provide ongoing leadership to CPTF as we move to implementation, we'll be relying on the newly established CPTF Leadership Team. The Leadership Team will operate much like an executive committee and will be responsible for providing feedback and support on work group plans before implementation, offering nimble decision making on the implementation of current priorities, and determining when decisions need to be elevated to the full CPTF. This team will be meeting weekly on Fridays at 8am and includes community and family voice and state and local agency representation. A list of CPTF Leadership Team members can be found below. In the spirit of transparency, these weekly meetings are always open to visitors and any CPTF member can propose agenda items. Please reach out to Jillian for details about joining the Friday meetings and/or to propose agenda items.

  • Lifting CPTF Priority Area Work Groups: To advance the three priorities of CPTF, we're excited to be lifting a work group to lead on each priority. These monthly work groups will be responsible for developing plans for their respective priority area, building relationships with others to support the priority area, and implementing their plans with full CPTF support. To start, each work group will be refining goals, strategies, and tactics for each priority as well as developing and acting on priority area action plans to achieve CPTF's goals. As work groups get established, each will select co-chairs to guide the work group. We continue to need your participation and leadership to advance these priorities and invite you to join the monthly work groups that resonate with you:
    • If you are interested in participating in the Community Norms/Conditions Work Group, please reach out to Hattie Landry. 
    • If you are interested in participating in the Early Touchpoints Work Group, please reach out to Cassie Davis. 
    • If you are interested in participating in the Alignment Work Group, please reach out to Cassie Davis. 

  • Continuing to Rely on the Full CPTF for Decisions: As we move forward,  the full CPTF membership will continue  to make strategic direction decisions around our priorities, goals, and any major adjustments to the strategic priorities document. Additionally we'll be looking to the full CPTF to facilitate connections to support work group implementation of priority area plans, support work groups in problem solving, and to share successes and challenges in implementation to inspire collective learning. Our next full CPTF meeting will be August 12th, 8-10 a.m. where we will hear and discuss updates from the work groups around planning and action. Moving forward, Full Partnership meetings will continue to be hosted every other month on the second Wednesday. 

Thank you all for your commitment to this work, and we look forward to continuing to work with you all to create the conditions for strong families and communities where children are healthy, valued, and thriving!

Giving Children Bright Beginnings and Acting on Anti-Racism

Picture
Colorado professionals who serve prenatal to one families convened this week to continue the conversation on supporting families during the time of COVID-19. ​
​
Bright by Text shared information on their free text messaging service, which offers tailored information on child development, local support services, and community events to families prenatal to eight. Registered families receive two to four messages per week--in English or in Spanish-- with a link to a landing page, where they can dive deeper into the message’s topic. By providing their child’s date of birth and their zip code at registration, families receive developmental information tailored to their child’s age and information on support services and community events happening in their local area.

During COVID-19, Bright by Text has adapted their messaging to include information on things like access to food, distribution of diapers and other baby supplies, and virtual activities hosted by public libraries. Bright by Text also allows organizations to leverage its platform to send information about events and resources to families.

Find more information and see examples of messages sent by Bright by Text
here.

Reach out to Tara Stingley ,if you are interested in using Bright by Text to promote resources to your community. 


Help families sign up for this invaluable service by encouraging them to text ‘GREATCHILDHOODS’ to 274448 or fill out this web enrollment form,

Picture
The group was also joined by Raise Colorado, who shared that COVID-19 led them to switch gears from focusing on prenatal to three policy advocacy to providing mini grants to direct service organizations in order to support the immediate needs of families brought on and heightened by the pandemic. They also shared the ongoing approach they have taken since their inception to translate their commitment to anti-racism into action and offered tools such as this resource on The Four I’s of Oppression and this tool for creating an Equity Rationale to empower others to do the same.

Let's Talk: Keeping Prenatal to One Families Strong during COVID-19

Picture
Picture
Over the last several months, Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families has hosted a series of conversations on Keeping Families Strong during COVID-19. Hundreds of family-strengthening professionals from across the state of Colorado have come together to share resources and innovations and work together to problem-solve the ongoing challenges of adapting their support of families to the ever-evolving context and needs that have arisen due to the COVID-19 crisis. 

Thus far, the conversations have been broad, including discussion on families at all stages. For the upcoming conversation on June 23rd, the focus will shift to hone in on the Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families’ focus of families prenatal to one. 

In alignment with this shift, the Partnership is excited to welcome Tara Stingley, Program Associate at Bright by Text, who will share information about the work they do to support families prenatal to one and how they have adapted this support amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The Bright by Text program provides research-based information on child development – plus information about local events and resources – to Colorado parents and caregivers of children prenatal to age 8 in both English and Spanish.

Join the conversation to hear more from Tara about the service as well as how families can sign up for it! 


Discuss your Ideas and Experiences Translating Anti-racism into Action. 
Additionally, the Partnership knows that risk and protective factors for family well-being are not randomly distributed among families and communities. They are closely linked to the uneven distribution of wealth, opportunities and privileges that have been created and continue to be fostered by historical and systemic racism. Thus, it is imperative to continuously examine how implicit bias and explicit discrimination continue to shape the current systems and services and engage in continuous course-correction with an anti-racism and anti-discrimination focus. For the upcoming conversation on June 23rd, please be prepared to discuss your ideas and experiences with translating your commitment to anti-racism into action. 

Keeping Prenatal to One Families Strong During COVID-19
Tuesday, June 23rd
3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Don’t Miss the Opportunity to:
  • Hear from Bright by Text
  • Participate in Vital Conversations about Racial Justice

Moving the Work Forward

Picture
The Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families is reimagining what it looks like to create the conditions for strong families and communities where children are healthy, valued, and thriving. Statewide representatives of public health, human services and healthcare systems collaborated over the last several months, using the data to understand the needs of Colorado families and begin working towards positively and proactively supporting strong and healthy family formation to achieve the Partnership’s goal of significantly reducing child fatalities and child maltreatment for all children zero to five. Just this week, the Partnership finalized its priority areas, associated goals, and desired short-term, intermediate, and long-term outcomes. 

To achieve its goal, the Partnership will prioritize aligning state and county systems to place family well-being at the center, strengthening the well-being services offered to young families, and improving social connectedness in order to better support parents and reduce their stress. The focus on these priority areas is intended to increase well-being for children and families, as measured by a variety of outcomes, including improved birth outcomes, improvement in caregivers’ mental and physical health, and increased economic security and community engagement of families. 

The Partnership knows that risk and protective factors for family well-being and child maltreatment are not randomly distributed among families and communities. They are closely linked to the uneven distribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges. Thus, the Partnership must work to decrease racial and ethnic disparities in well-being among children, caregivers, and families through ongoing examination of how implicit bias and explicit discrimination have shaped the systems and services currently in play and continuous engagement in course-correction with an anti-racism and anti-discrimination focus. 

While the Partnership’s overall, long-term focus is on families prenatal to five, the data is clear: families prenatal to one in Colorado have the most to gain from improvements to the systems that support them. With this knowledge, the Partnership has committed to placing an initial focus on families in this formative phase across all of its work and priorities.  

The Partnership firmly believes that in order to achieve these desired practice, policy, and systems changes, families must be engaged and empowered as leaders, advocates, and trusted partners in the co-creation of solutions. With this belief at the center of the work, the Partnership is integrating family voice into its leadership structure as well as at all other levels of the work. 

With its priority areas and their related goals established and a shared commitment to being driven by family voice and the advancement of equity in family well-being, Colorado Partnership for Thriving Families is prepared to move full steam ahead to create a Colorado with the conditions for strong families and communities where children are healthy, valued, and thriving. 

Interested in being involved? Please reach out to Hattie Landry to learn more.
