The Regional Prevention Collaboratives, one of the Thriving Families, Safer Children Kentucky initiatives, have been paving the way for proactive, community-driven resources and support for children and families. These collaboratives began during the summer of 2022 with convenings, called Visioning Sessions, where we gathered those living and working in communities to discuss local strengths and gaps, and then brainstorm ideas for community-led efforts that could prevent families from coming to the attention of the child welfare system. From those conversations, action plans were developed.

The Regional Prevention Collaboratives Action Plans are all located at kyyouth.org/tfscky/.

Two years later, we will be coming together once again for Re-Visioning Sessions to:

  • Celebrate progress made toward primary prevention over the past two years
  • Assess progress on the objectives
  • Determine strategy modifications for community strengthening and collaboration efforts moving forward
