Solutions that help get us where we want to go
Together for Arizona, formerly known as the Collective Impact for Children and Family Wellbeing, brings together institutions, practitioners, decision-makers, and community members with lived experience to analyze data, identify strategies, and launch improvement solutions designed to increase the five protective factors most directly linked to lower incidence of child abuse and neglect. Those protective factors are. parental resilience, social connections, knowledge of parenting and child development, concrete support in time of need, and children’s social and emotional competence.

The Strong Family Toolkit helps families own their experiences engaging with support services while helping service providers better coordinate their efforts to address families’ needs.
Together for Arizona connects conversations, ideas, programs, and people so that families can have a more streamlined approach to getting what they need. And, when families get what they need, they are less likely to bump against the child protection system or result in permanent separation.”

What keeps me involved in Together for Arizona is the diversity of opinion, experience, and knowledge that is then brought together to explore an idea, strengthen it and give it life. It’s a different model and approach to coming up with solutions that can make a greater impact in the community.
