I'm so pleased that the Spokane Regional Health District has kicked off Resilient INW. What an amazing opportunity to engage and unite our community on PACEs to build a more resilient community. Shout out to Rumyana, Jen, & Mary!

Over the next few weeks, we will be publishing profiles of HOPE Community Champions and the work they are doing to promote the building blocks of HOPE.

Parents engaged with Parent Allies have increased compliance with scheduled visitation and court ordered services, increased attendance at hearings and court proceedings. In the context of the HOPE Relationship Building Block, engaged parents also have significantly increased family reunification rates - 70% in contrast to 53% without Parent Ally engagement.

The biggest challenges to relationship are unsafe, unequitable, and unstable environments. Social and civic engagement empowers clients in a way where their voices can be heard and true change can occur.

Through the elevation of student voice, parental experiences, and the sharing of local data on disparities in educational outcomes and best practices to school and community leaders, the Every Student Counts Alliance has been successful in reforming school discipline practices.

We want parents, caregivers and children to feel comfortable in the library. Many elements make it a child friendly place. Staff are trained to be welcoming. If a child is having a meltdown or trouble sharing, we help!

Carmen Pacheco-Jones, Executive Director of the Health and Justice Recovery Alliance (HJRA) is being honored as a “Community HOPE Champion” for her tireless efforts to create supportive living spaces for mothers exiting the criminal justice system, in recovery from substance use disorder and/or mental health challenges.
