Housing's Critical Connection to Child Welfare
Children who lack stable and permanent housing are at greater risk of neglect or being placed in out-of-home care than children who don't. Child welfare professionals are challenged in working with families experiencing homelessness; meeting the requirements of a case plan can be more difficult for families struggling to obtain safe and affordable housing. Episode 1 focuses on how child welfare and housing specialists identify families and work in tandem to navigate the housing system and complete their child welfare case plans. Part 2 discusses how to create effective working relationships, share decisions, and partner with local housing authorities.
