Child Well-being: A Framework for Policy and Practice

Last year the Foster Care Work Group introduced the well-being framework to the work of the Youth
Transition Funders Group.  It's an inclusive framework that stretches from mental health to housing to employment.

Chapin Hall is holding a forum that will be live webcast on February 18th at 9 am CST on how Child Well-being can be a framework for policy and practice. The forum will explore the connection between healthy child development and well-being, provide several frameworks for understanding the domains and measurable indicators of well-being, and consider steps that can be taken to improve well-being and developmental functioning. Several well-being frameworks will be presented.

Moderated by Bryan Samuels, the panelists are Anthony Biglan, Senior Scientist, Oregon Research Institute; Barbara Langford, Director, Youth Transitions Funders Group; and Roger Weissberg, President and CEO, Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL). Register here.
