What does it take for children and youth to truly thrive?

Join us for a timely conversation on why supporting families is essential to improving child outcomes. Beyond classrooms and test scores, we’ll explore how family resource centers and community supports—from early childhood and housing to mental health and basic needs—help children succeed at home, in school, and throughout their lives.

Hear from community leaders and a parent advocate as they share real-world experiences navigating complex systems, building family stability, and preventing crises before they happen.

Speakers:
• Kula Koenig, Chief Policy Officer, Safe & Sound
• Brittni Chicuata, Director of Economic Rights, San Francisco Human Rights Commission
• Gloria Tan, Executive Director, Gum Moon
• Vicente Milan, Parent Leader, “Repeat and Repair” Group, Compass Family Services’ Family Resource Center
