The HOPE framework centers on the importance of positive experiences during childhood. Of course, children and their parents can do a great job in creating these opportunities – but social policies can make this easier or harder for families.
The HOPE National Resource Center intends to help policymakers know more about Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) – and how public policy can support access to the Four Building Blocks. Public policies can promote the dissemination of HOPE in particular, and improve understanding and promotion of PCEs in child- and family- service systems. Currently, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are well-known; HOPE can build on this knowledge by adding knowledge about how PCEs can reduce the effects of ACEs on children and families.
HOPE is not alone in this effort. We will begin sharing the work that our partners are doing to support children and families in policy. The HOPE in policy blog posts are intended to support policies that expand opportunities for children and families to thrive. In our blogs, we will be talking about how policies can advance the ability for children and families to have positive experiences.
