Did you know 1988 was a big year in Safe & Sound's history? ?? We launched services from our Haight-Ashbury firehouse, started the Children's Safety Awareness classes, and founded Kids’ Turn, a program to support the growing number of San Francisco children experiencing parental separation before the age of eighteen. Kids’ Turn is a co-parenting workshop that helps families navigate these challenges. We've recently shared the upcoming Spring workshop dates on our website. Check 'em out! https://lnkd.in/gUetrVit #KidsTurn #ParentingSupport #StrongerTogether #SafeSoundKids #StrengtheningFamilies #EndingChildAbuse

?? Strengthening Families, One Workshop at a Time ?? At Safe & Sound, we know that healing and growth happen in community. Through Kids' Turn, parents and children find support, connection, and tools to navigate family transitions. “Knowing that my child had a chance to meet and see other kids going through similar losses was comforting to me. Also, modeling for my child how to access community resources when faced with challenges was a valuable feature of this experience.” - Kids' Turn parent When families feel seen and supported, they thrive. ??

Safe & Sound senior adviser and former CEO, Katie Albright, has co-authored a powerful piece in the latest issue of Family Justice Journal setting out a guide for building pathways for supporting children and families in their own communities. ?? Family Justice Group Creating a community pathway means supporting families in their communities and enabling them to access help in the moment and at the time they need it most, before (or avoiding the need for) intervention from child protective services. ?
