Community In-Site
Community In-site is about the family well-being movement. Hosts Tecoria Jones and Elliott Hinkle bring their lived expertise with the child welfare system as well as their professional insights to each episode. We'll be talking to leaders, advocates, and community members who are working from the grassroots to the grasstops on strategies to invest in the well-being of families and communities in order to prevent child welfare involvement. The show will feature stories and lessons from community sites (featuring Thriving Families, Safer Children sites) that make the family well-being movement real and personal. Each episode will unpack a specific topic (e.g. racial equity or community partnerships) and what can be learned from the challenges and successes. The hosts hope to leave listeners with something they can take into their own work to help grow the movement in their community.

Producer's Note: Season Three is Coming in January....
In this episode, host Valerie Frost talks with Bobbi Taylor, an experienced child welfare advocate and founder of Proximate Solution about why entrepreneurship matters in the family well-being sector.
Bobbi shares the problem she saw up close: gaps in support, training, and tools for people trying to make meaningful change, and how founding a business became her pathway to tackle it. Listeners will hear about the lessons she’s learning as an early-stage founder, the challenges of building something new in this sector, and the practical insights she hopes other social entrepreneurs can carry forward.
This conversation highlights creativity, courage, and the kind of initiative that shows why more founders and builders are needed to create new pathways when traditional systems fail.
