WEBINAR: Sustaining 2Gen Success

March 19, 2018 | Webinars

On February 28, 2018, Ascend participated in a webinar with Reggie Bicha, executive director of the Colorado Department of Human Services, and Roxane White, Morgridge Innovator in Residence, which focused on maintaining positive 2Gen change achieved for families through Colorado’s gubernatorial transition. The speakers answered questions like:

  • How can state leaders ensure that 2Gen work is not relegated to just one department or program?
  • What might a 2Gen roadmap look like at the state level?
  • How can leaders use data and stories to keep 2Gen work moving forward?

View a recording and check out theĀ blog postĀ that Reggie and Roxane recently authored on sustaining 2Gen success. You can also read theĀ Colorado Guide to 2Gen, a roadmap for the next phase of the stateā€™s efforts to ensure that all Colorado families and children are valued, healthy, and thriving.
