At the HOPE National Resource Center, one of our greatest joys is having opportunities to work with and learn from those engaged with HOPE—from workshop participants, advisors, and collaborators, to blog readers and commenters. This engagement and co-learning both spreads HOPE and improves our materials, resources, and core concepts.
In that spirit, we partnered with Corey Best (Community Curator, Mining for Gold, and HOPE National Advisory Board member) to solicit parent feedback on the HOPE website and Building Blocks. With his facilitation, we implemented an anonymous survey for the Birth Parent National Network (BPNN), “a national network of hundreds of birth parents and organizations working together to strengthen families, communities, and systems by engaging the voices of parents.” The aim of the survey was to garner input on whether various website pages and HOPE concepts were interesting and relevant to parents, whether concepts were inclusive of parents’ experiences, and whether parents found the Building Blocks practical to their own children’s lives. Ultimately, we received around 40 responses per question, with an overall positive response to HOPE’s strengths-based approach, inclusiveness, and relevance to respondents’ parenting. In this post, we present the aggregated results of this survey.
