CTIPP CAN: Follow the Money: How Poverty Became Neglect in Federal Foster Care Law, Policy, & Budgeting

Attendees can expect to learn the history of funding and its impact on child and family strengthening systems. Budget decisions greatly impact systems, and we'll discuss how funding can create support programs, resources, and services to children, teens, and young adults, and families as a whole. 

Our current systems are inefficient and are riddled with historical legacies of structural racism and oppression, and we want to empower advocates and decision-makers to promote healing and build a society where trauma doesn't have a ripple effect during the lifespan of our nation's young people and across future generations.

Presentations/speakers:

• ANTRON McCULLOUGH, MBA, Director of Engagement & Empowerment, CTIPP
• PRUDENCE BEIDLER CARR, JD, Director of the Center on Children and the Law, American Bar Association
