      <image:title>Home - We listen.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Everyone has a story. Stories of joy, hardship, love and loss. We carry these stories with us as individuals and as a community. Inside these stories, we find wisdom, strength, and the knowledge we need to heal ourselves, to care for each other, and to build a more just and nurturing world for our children. Your story matters.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - We act.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Dignity and love is every child’s birth right, and as a society we share a responsibility to protect and care for one another. Preventing, treating and healing from adverse childhood experiences takes a village - one committed to personalized, culturally resonant care that leaves no one out. It also requires a willingness to understand and transform the societal conditions that have disproportionately exposed people of color to the risks of trauma and chronic stress. Every person deserves to be welcomed into this world with the CORE Conditions needed to thrive - this is what drives our Network of Care.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The most powerful place to share your elevator speech is where it can be heard by our policy makers and other community leaders. Town hall meetings, city council meetings, school board meetings and legislative visits are just a few example of places where you can deliver your message. Remember: you don’t have to be fearless and perfect - just courageous and authentic. You are your child’s BEST advocate.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Toolkit - Practice with Peers</image:title>
      <image:caption>Practicing your elevator speech in front of family or friends is a great way to ease yourself into public speaking. While giving your speech, practice making eye contact with your audience, articulating your words, and speaking with confidence - even though you will probably feel nervous. Ever heard the phrase “Fake it till you make it”? It works!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Toolkit - Practice on your Own</image:title>
      <image:caption>Once you have thought through these questions, write down your ideas and take some time to synthesize your responses into just a a few sentences. Refining our thoughts can feel challenging because there is so much to every story, but the most impactful speeches are often concise and pack a strong punch. Read your final statement out loud to yourself.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Toolkit - What is your story?</image:title>
      <image:caption>What challenges are you/your family facing? How are your children/family/community being affected? What do the challenges look &amp; feel like? What key details or facts will help us understand? How does your personal story connect to our shared community story? Example: I have seen my child, my community and myself struggle through distance learning and face reduced hours of work due to COVID, which impacts our ability to provide for our families. I have been waiting 8 months to get my child into daycare so I can get back to work. Sometimes lately I feel like I can’t breathe, and I know it doesn’t have to be this way.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Toolkit - What is your call to action?</image:title>
      <image:caption>What is your call to action for elected officials? What changes do you want to see? How can we co-create solutions together? Example: We urgently need to prioritize distance learning resources, childcare funding and economic relief packages to protect the wellbeing of all families and ensure our children can thrive. Can we count on you to work with us to create these solutions?</image:caption>

With so much contradictory information circulating, it can be hard to know which sources to trust and where easy-to-understand information can be found.

      <image:caption>Lobbying and Advocacy 101: Lobbying is not only legal – it’s one of the most effective means for nonprofits to advance their missions.
