<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">We don’t do a partnership exclusive with our Department of Education, but instead, an inter-agency coalition spear headed by the Cabinet for Health & Family Services. The initiative is called Kentucky Strengthening
Families and is individualized state approach to a larger national program of a similar name. The work is focused on educating everyone from schools, to policy makers, and various community organizations on issues such as toxic stress and trauma and the impact
that can have on the first five years of life. The goal is to provide increased community support and points of contacts for parents and caregivers to turn to in times of crisis in order to build healthier communities and more resilient families.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">For anyone who was on the YALSA webinar call with me last week, I may have briefly mentioned this in connection to the evolution of this group and the new initiative coming out of
<a href="https://kidsnow.ky.gov/professionals/kysf/Pages/default.aspx">Youth Thrive</a>, which is focusing on similar issues, but aimed exclusively at instilling protective factors in youth and teens.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">While I have made a lot of contacts and finally beginning to see some fruit from the relationships, I will say it has been a very slow march to progress. For the last year there has been a lot of focus on transitioning
the goals of our meeting from inward-facing policy to discussions to outward facing creation of education materials and public campaigns. I recently attended a train-the-trainer event on the latest curriculum model, but still trying to figure out a plan on
how to implement and reach all of our libraries.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Any State Libraries collaborating with their Department of Education on Family Engagement? How do you approach them to include libraries?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Michigan Dept. of Ed has begun a task force to develop “Family Engagement Framework,” for ages prek-20, and I’m heading to my first meeting today. I’ve got the
<u>Ideabook: Libraries for Families</u> and the <u>Public Libraries: A Vital Space for Family Engagement</u> publications, but am curious if any of you are working on this in your states?<o:p></o:p></p>
