SUMMARY:Inaugural Cesar Chavez Commemoration Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Cesar Chavez Day is celebrated on March 31\, annually. It is also Cesar Chavez’s birthday. In 2014\, President Barack Obama declared Cesar Chavez Day a national holiday. Chavez was a child of a migrant farm family\, a former Navy serviceperson\, and cofounder of the National Farm Workers’ Association (now the United Farm Workers). In this new role\, Chavez became the best-known Latino American civil rights activist. Leading the struggle for better rights for farm workers\, his steady but nonviolent tactics made the farm workers’ struggle a moral cause with wide support. \nCome be a part of NCAP’s inaugural Cesar Chavez Commemoration Webinar. During this webinar\, we’ll pay tribute to Chavez’s legacy as a civil rights champion. We’re excited to have Dr. Ann Lopez\, Executive Director of the Center for Farmworker Families\, MaríaElena De La Garza\, Executive Director of Community Action Board of Santa Cruz County\, Inc.\, and Laura Ponce\, Executive Director at Project BRAVO\, join us. Together\, we’ll spotlight various local initiatives dedicated to empowering farmworker families towards better social and economic opportunities. \nClick here to register for the webinar.

SUMMARY:Child and Family Well-being System: Economic & Concrete Supports as a Core Component
DESCRIPTION:This webinar\, presented by Chapin Hall\, will share the growing body of evidence on the relationship between increased access to economic and concrete supports and reduced risk of family child welfare involvement. The intersection of family economic insecurity and involvement with child welfare will be discussed\, as well as the potential for increased access to economic and concrete supports to address long-standing racial inequities and disproportionate child welfare involvement for families of color.  Policy examples will be shared that demonstrate innovative pathways to increase the provision of economic and concrete supports as a child welfare prevention strategy and opportunities for partnerships with communities. Reorienting and resourcing child and family well-being and child welfare prevention will require new mindsets\, partnerships and policies—a vision for the way forward will be introduced. \nDuring this webinar\, participants will explore: \n\nEvidence related to the association between family economic instability and involvement with child welfare.\nPolicy choices that decrease or increase economic and concrete supports in the lives of families.\nImplications the evidence and policy choices have on advocacy for children and families involved with child welfare.\nCall to action: encourage CAA leaders to reach out to their local child welfare leaders\, start a conversation\, and/or use the CAA State Association to connect to state child welfare leaders.\n\nFor more information and resources\, visit: A Key Connection: Economic Stability and Family Well-being. \nPresenter: Yasmin Grewal-Kök\, J.D.\, M.Ed.
