Home visiting is a highly effective, sustainable, and quality strategy to support families and enhance a child’s development outside the early childhood classroom. So why are these programs widely untapped, underfunded, and often excluded from ECE policy conversations? Vote for our #SXSWEDU panel “Unlocking the Policy Potential of Home-Visiting” with myself; @Yvette Sanchez Fuentes at Start Early; @Jackie Cordova M.Ed. at Parent Possible; and @Emily Tate Sullivan at EdSurge as we dive into strategies to elevate home visiting and explore how federal and state advocates can collaborate to support program implementation: https://lnkd.in/eyG_qQP7

What happens when you bring together the voices of Sydneysiders from business, public service, media, academia, politics, and community organisations to explore what’s in the way of us talking constructively about housing? Next25 and UTS TD School have done just that in our latest research on constructive discussion and Sydney’s housing challenges. Join us on 2 August from 12-1 p.m. for a free public webinar that will explore this research and how participants' varied insights have helped illuminate barriers and opportunities for progress in conversations in the housing sector. Hear from Chloё Spackman, Fanny Salignac, Alex Baumber, and Samuel Wearne on the collaboration and key insights from two papers. One delves into the opportunities to influence based on interviews with a cross-section of stakeholders in the Sydney housing ecosystem. The second explores a range of relevant concepts that can be drawn upon to enable constructive discussion across four spheres: personal, conversational, institutional, and cultural.

Yesterday, I posted about my thoughts on op/ed which had me reflecting on my responsibility to students in higher ed in moments of crisis (especially involving social justice issues). So I was so happy today when I saw this new publication including the same author, which expands on some of the points in that article and provides practical advice for campus leaders on responding to racial crisis! And two incredible people I know (Jude Paul Dizon, Ph.D., and Marissiko Wheaton-Greer, Ph.D.) are also authors! It's not long. A must read.

If you've had a hectic day at work but still want to make it to a community listening session to share your thoughts on health, education, local/state government, or housing & labor, what would entice you to join the discussion?
