Securing Our Future Initiative Resource E-Booklet Available

The Citizens Advisory Committee on Health & Human Services, Birth to 22 Alliance, Community Partners of South Florida, and PBC Community Services hosted the second Securing Our Future Initiative Economic Mobility Summit at the end of 2024.

The summit, hosted every other year, featured local organizations showcasing initiatives designed to advance economic mobility, particularly for low-income families. Each panel pairs local leaders with national experts to share research and best practices relevant to the discussions, and to inspire local leaders to adopt innovative strategies in their plans. Key resources such as the Urban Institute's Upward Mobility Framework, Results for America's Economic Mobility Catalog, and The Opportunity Atlas were discussed; Workshops focused on vital efforts to strengthen the safety net for working families, reduce barriers to employment, education , and workforce training, and enhance family economic security through asset development.

Efforts to promote cross-agency collaboration, leverage technology for better service delivery, use data for informed policy-making, and effectively engage stakeholders were highlighted throughout the event.

Community Services just released a digital booklet that captures the essence of the event, photo collages, links to workshop content and resources, ways to become involved, and links to live session recaps.
