This workshop will provide information on history and workforce of Certified Family Partners (CFP) in Texas. Panelists will also share the value of the lived experience CFPs can bring to an organization in engaging families in systems. The engagement leads to better family and youth outcomes and family voice and choice being infused in systems. Audience members will come away with an understanding of the meaning of family voice as well as the value of lived experience navigating child serving systems.
