It’s very interesting that organizations that work with young adult advocates will never work with parent advocates. Even when organizing and advocating organizations that claim to be helping still keep families separate.
@JMacForFamilies If Orgs don't have the capacity to support the intentional development of understanding relationships, it might be for the best they don't come together. There's significant up-front groundwork that needs to happen to help folks understand we are two sides of the same coin.
@twicesevered If orgs don’t have the capacity to do what it needs to keep or bring families together - maybe they shouldn’t be doing this work.
@JMacForFamilies Folks like Foster Club, Generations United, and Children's Trust Fund Alliance often do this work very effectively.
