How Family Dynamics are Unique in Kinship Families
World-renowned kinship expert, Dr. Joseph Crumbley, will explain how family dynamics in kinship families differ from those in other families.
As agencies across the country increasingly adopt kin-first policies, the challenge of how to achieve and track progress can be steep. Although data is widely considered an important piece of the puzzle, the practical detail of how to actually utilize data is often pushed aside in favor of broad strokes discussion.
This webinar is designed to support child welfare practitioners in using data to prioritize kinship care. Network Subject Matter Experts, Noah Duncan and Jack Tait of Foster Insights, will provide practical strategies for using data to ensure that your agency is engaging kinship caregivers wherever possible. Using their experience from states across the country, they will discuss first steps for collecting and understanding kinship data. Plan on leaving this session empowered to implement these practical strategies in your own agency.

- Noah Duncan, Executive Director, Foster Insights, University of Chicago
