Kinnect is proudly partnering with the Ohio Department of Children and Youth to launch the KinFirst Project. Together, we're revolutionizing support for kinship caregivers and adoptive families. Join us in shaping a brighter future! kinnect.org #kinnect

Implementation of a Kinfirst system requires a revolution, not evolution. It must be quick, disruptive, and decisive. At its center is a highly disruptive value, children need their parents, family, and culture, parents, families, and cultures need their children.

For children who have to come into #fostercare, living with extended family when you can’t live with your parents is a lifeline. We are working to shifting the foster care system to a #kinship care system. #kinfirst thank you to our partners! @ABAesq @SecondChanceInc @GensUnited @NewAmerica

#KinshipCareMonth 📷 If a child needs to be in #fostercare, let's place them with their extended family members... So proud of the catalytic change @sixtocancel is driving!📷 RT to join the #KinFirst revolution and watch Sixto’s #TedTalk 📷 go.ted.com/sixtocancel

Scotland should not have a system organized around foster and congregate care, it must become KinFirst system that supports families caring for their children. The evidence is beyond dispute, kinship care is the best alternative to staying with a parent, it is also the most just.

Offer to provide a meal, run an errand, provide respite care, or meet another tangible need for a kinship family this month. Let's make a point to wrap around all types of foster families! #fictivecare #wraparound #fostercareawareness #kinfirst

Kinship Care provides the best alternative to staying safely with your parent. A KinFirst system, not a care system.

"Fictive kin" describes a type of kinship foster care that is provided by a non-family member. These caregivers may be godparents, neighbors, coaches, teachers, or family friends. 1/3 #fictivecare #kinfirst #fostercareawareness #kinshipcare

Kinship placements minimize trauma, improve well-being, increase permanency, improve healthy outcomes, promote sibling ties, and preserve identity. We are celebrating kinship families this month! Join us! #kinfirst #kinshipcare #family

Governor Northam ceremonially signed @WendyGooditisVA's “KinFirst” legislation to shift the focus for child placements to kin caregivers and to codify “fictive kin”. Voices’ Policy & Programs Director Allison Gilbreath (and new baby Ella) were on hand to participate.

“KinFirst” passed the Senate! This bill allows for children in the foster care system to have a preference for kin placements and defines “fictive kin”. Bill HB1962, @WendyGooditisVA
