What pressures are states facing that make early family visibility so urgent?

SPEAKER_04 1:14

And how those needs have really intensified over the past several years. The lack of behavioral health resources, the lack of placement options, youth waiting in hospital settings for a hospital bed or sleeping in CYS offices, child welfare offices or hotels because placement resources are unavailable. Where if we were able to earlier identify family, maybe some of those things would not occur.

SPEAKER_02 1:47

And so we talked about this briefly that so one of the big issues is that the data is everywhere. It's all over the place.

SPEAKER_00 3:00

Similarly, we can target tools that that can that can uh digest uh and and pull out now. And this is where you know the the rub is in the details of of um how is that accurate? Is that is that uh um is there bias in that? And um and there's a lot of concern there. And so um, you know, I think that uh um but but the capability is there and and um and we need to leverage technology to support this because it's just it's not it's not slowing down, it's only increasing.

SPEAKER_02 3:37

So Telena, Ann just described that the processes for Family Connect are locate, engage, connect, sustain. And she just described the location piece, which is you know, identifying who are potential potential family members that are out there, verifying, you know, who they are. And then this is handed over to your team to take on engage. So what does that mean?

SPEAKER_03 3:58

So the engagement piece is really, really critical and crucial. Um, it's about reaching out to every single individual um that we've identified in a thoughtful and respectful way. Um it ensures family members we do, we have some deep-rooted conversations. We make sure that they are understanding the situation and they also understand the role that they might play in supporting the child and or sometimes the family. Um engagement focuses on building trust and having open, honest communication with those family, family members to participate.

SPEAKER_02 4:32

And I would imagine, and we talked about this earlier, that there's probably a lot of hesitation from, you know, especially if if you're viewed in any way, shape, or form as being part of, you know, law enforcement or the court system or whatever, there's probably families that are going to be hesitant to talk to you. I I have to imagine that's a skill set that takes a while to be able to break through that and that engagement process.
