We’re entering a new era that will provide stronger support for struggling families in Pennsylvania
Anne Mosle, Marjorie Sims | October 19, 2021 | Ascend Network
Anne Mosle and Marjorie Sims co-authored an op-ed in Penn Live/ Patriot News discussing the accomplishments of Ascend Network partners in Pennsylvania and present opportunities ahead to advance family well-being by centering families through two-generation (2Gen) approaches.
We are at a moment in the nation – and in Pennsylvania – when a paradigm shift is in reach to update ineffective, top-down systems to be more responsive, effective, and equitable for all families. Today, the American Rescue Plan (ARP) provides unprecedented resources to improve the lives of families who are still reeling from COVID-19 and its economic impact as well as longstanding inequities that have been exacerbated by the pandemic.
