Join the Center for Family Voice at Groundwork Ohio on Wednesday, July 7th from 10:00am-11:00am for the virtual release of our new report, “Amplifying Family Voice to Advance Equitable Outcomes for Young Children.” During the webinar, Groundwork Ohio will be joined by early childhood experts and esteemed guests to discuss the findings of our new report, expectations for the future work of the Center for Family Voice and how Ohio can better empower families to drive change and improve the healthy development of Ohio’s young children.

Speakers include:
• Shannon Jones, Executive Director of Groundwork Ohio
• Lynanne Gutierrez, Assistant Director at Groundwork Ohio
• Director Maureen Corcoran, Ohio Department of Medicaid
• Ami Cole, President at Molina Healthcare of Ohio
• Sherri Killins Stewart, Director of State Systems Alignment and Integration for the BUILD Initiative

In January, Groundwork Ohio announced a historic investment by MolinaCares Accord to build a “center of excellence” dedicated to authentically engaging Ohio parents and families in the policies and practices that impact the healthy development of their children. The report reflects findings from an extensive environmental scan across the state of Ohio and nation completed by the Center to explore best practices that successfully engage families in public services delivery to inform state and local programs, practices, and policy development. The scan was supported by expert technical assistance support from the Center for Health Care Strategies and the BUILD Initiative.
