Kinship Coalition Virtual Summit

September 2, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm

The summit will be a two part series to learn about the current landscape of kinship care at the state and national level, and then prioritize an action agenda with kinship and fictive kin caregivers across the commonwealth.

Part 1: The Kinship Summit will be on Thursday, September 2, 2021 for kinship and fictive kin caregivers, child welfare stakeholders, and policy makers.

Two years after Family First implementation, over a year out from a global pandemic, a lawsuit that rose to the level of the Supreme Court, and several years of policy changes related to supports for relative caregivers necessitates an intentional reflection and a look forward.

Part 2: As a follow up to the Kinship Summit, the Kinship Families Coalition of Kentucky will host follow-up conversations with support groups across the commonwealth to gather feedback on what the support groups heard and what priorities still need to be addressed.
