The First 1,000 Days Project may be of interest to many of my fellow Washingtonians in this group! This project is attempting to answer these questions…

• “What will it take to get 1,000 Babies in 1,000 Days born in one or 2 different communities to thrive, regardless of the stress their families may have been experiencing at their birth?
• How do we find them sooner, figure out which families need more support, target those supports, and track how the population is doing?
• What can we learn and change across the multiple systems that are most involved with families?
• What longer term issues may need to be addressed in policy and practice to demonstrate that we are using the science to collectively build stronger families and communities?”

…by building a coordinated community response to reduce the impacts of ACEs. Click here to learn more and share this exciting opportunity for Washington State communities with your colleagues and community members!
