During the event, we will discuss the following six subjects that are included in House and/or Senate interim charges:
- Child care quality and safety
- Student mental health
- Maternal and infant health
- Leveraging the federal Family First Act
- Early childhood brain development
- Reducing the uninsured rate
Texans Care for Children staff will provide brief remarks on each interim charge, facilitate a discussion, and gather input from partners, community organizations, and other stakeholders in attendance.
Many of these interim charges are important for stakeholders from a variety of issue areas. The Family First Act discussion, for example, will be relevant for Texans working on foster care, CPS removals, home visiting, substance use treatment for parents, children’s mental health, juvenile justice, teen pregnancy, and more.
