Policy Recommendation Release of Safe, Healthy and Ready to Learn

On May 19, Futures  Without Violence, in partnership with more than a dozen leading education, health, and justice organizations, will release its consensus report on children exposed to violence and trauma and policy solutions that prevent violence and trauma and help children, families and communities heal and thrive.

Joining FUTURES Founder and President Esta Soler at the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C. will be National Education Association President Lily Eskelsen García, Nathan R. Monell, Executive Director, National Parent Teacher Association (PTA) as well as leaders from Fight Crime Invest in Kids, the American Psychological Association and a dynamic local vice principal.

The policy recommendations to be released are the culmination of a year-long process of gathering information and developing a shared vision of how multiple systems that serve children and families could work together to raise awareness about the impact of trauma on children’s health, development and education success.

This event will take place from 2:00 to 3:00 pm EDT on Tuesday, May 19 at The Brookings Institute in Washington, D.C.
