What Did We Accomplish in 2022? READ MORE What Did We Accomplish in 2022? As we wrapped-up another year, we are reflecting on what we have accomplished. With our sites set on expanding our impact, we extended our reach across communities by adding new team members, forging new partnerships and developing our network of facilitators. Above all, the Abriendo Puertas/Opening Doors growing network has worked to elevate, center and support families. Here’s a recap of what we achieved, together: Expanded our Facilitator NetworkWe continued to host our virtual Program Acquisition Institutes training, which has proven to be just as effective and even more accessible for participants. We hosted 16 national facilitator trainings and welcomed nearly 400 newly certified 3rd Edition facilitators from 97 organizations. Our network of facilitators now spans across 41 states. Sign up for an institute this yearDeveloped New Organizational PartnershipsSesame Street in CommunitiesWe launched an exciting video with Sesame Street in Communities. In the video, Sofía, Rosita and Rosa speak about the important role that parents play as role models for their children and how Abriendo Puertas/Opening Doors helps build a foundation of learning and resilience for families. Watch the videoAbriendo Puertas/Opening Doors and Sesame Street in Communities also joined together to facilitate two webinars. The convenings explored resources for families and providers about how children can understand and address racism that is also being shared with AP/OD facilitators across the country.Watch the recordingsUnidosUSWe started a collaboration to develop the Latino Infant Initiative (LII)- a partnership with UnidosUS, funded by the J.B. and M.K. Pritzker Family Foundation. Its purpose is to develop a national network of Latino family advocates that strengthens organization’s program capacity to provide high-quality services for Latino infants and their families. The collaboration also focuses on disseminating relevant research evidence to policymakers and programs and advocates for informed policies, campaigns, and investments at the federal, state, and local levels. The Children's PartnershipWe collaborated with The Children’s Partnership, Families and Schools and Great Public Schools on content about how to protect children from COVID-19 as they re-entered school, and Latino childrens’ health in California. Together with the Latino Coalition for a Healthy California (LCHC) and Latino Health Access, we helped inform the California Latinx Children’s Health fact sheet. This fact sheet paints a picture of the rich racial, ethnic, linguistic and cultural assets and strengths that Latinx children and their families bring to California as well as barriers and inequities they face that impact their health and well-being.Check out the fact sheetCatalyst CaliforniaWe contributed to Catalyst California’s, Uplifting Family Voices: Family Engagement in California’s Rate Reform & Quality Initiative. This report elevates the voices of families with young children across California, particularly those from historically underserved communities of color. These crucial insights can inform California’s decisions on rate reform and quality to eradicate systemic barriers rooted in racism, sexism, and classism and ensure the system is fully resourced and designed for California’s diverse children to thrive.Read the reportNew Mexico-based OrganizationsWe joined forces with our partners in New Mexico, Future Focused Education and the New Mexico Early Childhood Education and Care Department to develop a Young Parents cohort, the X3 Home Visiting Internship Program.
