Public policy
Casey Family Programs partners with policymakers at the federal, Tribal, state and local levels to provide nonpartisan, accessible, evidence-based information and data to educate and inform investments and policies that benefit children and families.
Insights from data
We use data to better understand what works best to improve safety and well-being outcomes. With this information, we track progress and develop resources and educational materials to drive change in the child and family well-being system.
A shared vision of change
We promote promising practices and underlying policies that improve the lives of vulnerable children and their families. In particular, we provide information about policies that allow child welfare systems to make smart, effective investments so more children have the opportunity to grow up in safe, stable and supportive families.
We are committed to supporting federal child welfare policy changes that will provide every state with the ability to invest existing resources in the most effective strategies to safely reduce the need for foster care, strengthen families and improve the safety and success of all children.
Collaborating
We constantly collaborate with a broad range of partners to collectively extend the depth and reach of our public policy work with executive, judicial and legislative branches of federal, state and local governments.
Policy resources
We have many resources regarding effective public policy that support the well-being of children and families.
