I just subscribed to the examined family. Such a good resource for parents and caregivers and anyone who think about family systems in America. courtney.substack.com/subscr…

Great analysis on the latest #NAEP scores via @NYTimes. Oof. We’ve got work to do. nytimes.com/2022/10/24/us/ma…

Good people of #California - hear directly from your #political candidates about how they plan to address the needs of #children and #youth. Awesome resource from @ChildrenNow. #ProKid
We've published the verbatim responses to our 2022 State Legislative Candidate Questionnaire. This questionnaire, which covered a broad range of issues that impact kids, was sent to each candidate running for a State Assembly or Senate seat ▶ bit.ly/3T3WB2e #ProKidCA

Backpack with a 3-year-old. ✅ Check! (Not that any reasonable person would have this on their bucket list). Miraculously and to my earnest surprise, it was awesome.

What a gorgeous, scrumptious, and nourishing evening!! The birthday boy savored čišnay ‘at mamakwa tiwwiš tawwa sii and everything that followed. The @makamham team was gracious and welcoming. It is hard to find the words to describe how special this was. Thank you.

Great to connect with #womenofcoloronthemove today, the latest member of #TheChildrensMovement @ChildrenNow @WOConthemove. These women are doing great things for #kids, #families, and #women in the Sacramento area.

High sierras lake swimming today created an unparalleled calm to my nervous system. With arms outstretched, I just floated. For a while. Supported by the water. Fed by the air. Wilderness spa days are the best.

When I say strike a pose to my 3 and 7 year old.

I have the title of my favorite childhood book (sadly now out of print) by Leo Lionni tattooed on my wrist. It is about a “little piece” who discovers wholeness through brokenness. Who else can relate to little Pezzettino? #ChildrensBooks make the BEST literature. @PantheonBooks

Yes -- powerful post on the @CEPData blog today! When only 1 in 3 LGBTQ+ students feel like a part of their school's community, there is plenty of work to do. #PrideMonth2022 might be over, but the work must continue...
