Navigating Child Welfare | CPS, Foster Care, Family Court, Adoption, Mandated ReporterEpisode 16: Barriers to Connection...and How We Remove ThemHost Shanelle Dupree makes the case that no one can (or should) do this work alone.

Navigating Child Welfare | CPS, Foster Care, Family Court, Adoption, Mandated ReporterEpisode 15: Child Welfare's a New LanguageEpisode summary
In this episode of Navigating Child Welfare, host Shanelle Dupree makes the case for a third “C” that changes outcomes: connected. Through a story about attending a presentation in Spanish, Shanelle shares how knowing the language can help make you feel connected. Shanelle shows how child welfare jargon and acronyms quietly exclude parents, youth, volunteers, and even new staff. Her fix is simple and powerful: translate the work. Provide glossaries, slow down for definitions, and create shared language so people can participate fully in decisions that shape their families and futures.

This week we travel to ambiguous California in 2003 to explore the body-swapping romp that is "Freaky Friday". Let's be honest, Jamie Lee Curtis should have snagged an Oscar nom for this role. Lindsay Lohan should have at least snagged a Golden Globe nom. At the very least, according to Shanelle, "Ultimate" should have snagged a Grammy nom.
