Cross Training Frontline Housing and Child Welfare Staff

An important part, perhaps the most important part, of bridging the housing and child welfare systems is supporting front line workers.  NCHCW brings together frontline workers from the housing system and the child welfare system using the Child Welfare League of America’s Keeping Families Together and Safe cross-training curriculum.  The Freddie Mac Foundation provided funding CWLA to create and test this successful tool for bringing workers together for the day to broaden each worker’s understanding of the resources and knowledge to be gained by joining together to improve the lives of the families and youth with whom they work.
