Everyone at Parents as Teachers has a story, so how can we tell it so people will listen? At the National Center, we're often fielding requests from the media, brainstorming how to share stories effectively, and strategizing about the best channels for amplifying the partnerships between families and parent educators. Jen Peters, a communications strategist with over a decade of experience supporting initiatives across education, technology, and public health, and Kerry Caverly, Senior Vice President and Chief Program Officer for the Parents as Teachers National Center, join us to talk about the different ways that parent educators and Parents as Teachers affiliates can share stories about the work they do, and why storytelling matters.

By bringing together a unique and comprehensive portfolio of evidence-based programs (including Parents as Teachers), Imprints Cares in Winston-Salem, NC addresses the developing social, behavioral, and academic needs of children while also studying the impact of these efforts on families. Dr. Anna Miller-Fitzwater and Maria Stockton join us to talk about Imprints Cares, its affiliation with Parents as Teachers, and the research behind what makes this carefully integrated program work so well.
