This recorded session of the SOC Leadership Learning Community focused on how to operationalize family voice and leadership in all aspects of SOC development and expansion. Presenters shared a framework with specific questions and strategies that can be used to guide the implementation of family-driven approaches and foster collaborations with family-run organizations, regardless of the developmental stage of your community and system efforts. Examples that highlight effective approaches to develop and sustain family voice and leadership were shared. In addition, sites will learn how to access resources, peer to peer sharing and ongoing technical assistance in their family engagement and leadership efforts.
