This session will focus on how to engage and empower family leaders and why family voice is a critical component of systems change work. Family Leaders will explain the purpose, structures, and activities of the Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems (ECCS) Family Leadership Group while weaving in their personal experiences and feelings about their work. The ECCS Family Lead will explain how the group was developed and how they are supported. The Parent Family and Community Engagement Framework for Early Childhood Systems will be reviewed, and participants will be given the opportunity to reflect and share. The ECCS Lead will also provide an overview of the ECCS Collaborative, how it aligns with the five conditions of Collective impact, and how the Collective Impact Index is being used as one tool in the evaluation of the collaborative's work.
