Past Priorities
As of 2021, our Community Connections work group membership was folded into our Thriving Families Work Group. We rely on these work group members to disemminate resources and information in their respective communities.
Below are the past priorities that have been shifted over to Thriving Families:
- Connect communities to Resources 757, a regional directory of family resources.
- Continue to support school divisions' efforts to align and streamline the kindergarten registration process across the cities.
- Share The Basics, a community mobilization campaign supporting the important role families and community play in building strong social and emotional connections in the first three years of life.
It is my hope that we can identify targeted best practice solutions to build strong and stable families, customize them for South Hampton Roads and implement them so they reach the most at-risk families.
