Their ultimate aim is to improve child and family well-being, based on a philosophy and foundational frameworks described as follows:
Collective Impact necessitating diverse stakeholder involvement, including residents, organizations, and systems, to collectively define a problem, develop shared strategies and goals, and implement the work together; Two- (or Multi-) Generational Approach focused on creating programs and policies that address the needs of vulnerable children and their parents/caretakers together; and Equity Framework focused on explicitly addressing issues of racial, gender and LGTBQ equity in communities, and implicit bias in service provision and policy.
Five core strategies are employed:
? Build Partnerships that engage public, non-profit, private and grassroots stakeholders ? Coordinate Service Referrals among local provider and city programs ? Build Social Capital by supporting Community Ambassadors in peer-led programs ? Support Community Knowledge through events focused on primary prevention ?

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
