2016 Systems to Family Stability National Policy Academy Meeting

The 2016 Systems to Family Stability National Policy Academy meeting was held on July 26-28, 2016 in Annapolis, Maryland at the Historic Inns of Annapolis. The Academy is an initiative that provides training and technical assistance to eight state and county Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) programs as they work on building internal and/or collaborative systems within and across agencies that improve family stability and economic self-sufficiency. Academy sites are focusing on a range of systems change activities, including two-generation approaches, TANF and Workforce system alignment, and enhanced assessment and case management approaches. The Academy meeting included plenary and breakout sessions across the listed content areas as well as time for participants to work with their own teams and with other teams for additional learning and peer feedback.
