Family Voice
Family voice is central to the development, design, and implementation of our program.
We believe families are leaders in their own lives and know what they need to succeed. Through monthly coaching sessions, surveys, self-assessments, and our Family Advisory Council, we gain critical insights into the inequities and systemic challenges faced by vulnerable families striving for economic stability.
Shaping policies & systems
JPP recognizes that each family is unique, with their own strengths, experiences, and perspectives. We believe that these valuable insights are the key to shaping effective services and creating real systems change.
Families have journeyed through various systems, gaining firsthand knowledge of what works and what doesn't. Their lived experiences provide a wealth of wisdom that professionals and policymakers can learn from. JPP creates spaces where families can share their stories, providing valuable feedback on procedures, policies, and services.
By amplifying the voices of families and engaging them as experts, we work towards creating inclusive and effective systems that support the well-being of all. Their voices and lived experiences help shape policies, influence decision-makers, and drive positive change.
Building stronger communities
We work to create opportunities for families to be heard, while also providing them with the necessary information, resources, and leadership opportunities to advocate for themselves and their loved ones.
Having families at the table has proven to be a vital component in fostering collaboration, building partnerships, and creating a supportive environment for both businesses and families. Through initiatives like the Family Advisory Board and the Speakers Bureau, JPP fosters an environment where families feel comfortable and confident in advocating for their needs. We not only enhance their own well-being but also improve services and support for everyone.
Continuous learning & adaptation
We believe in a culture of learning and adaptation. By actively listening to families and staying open to their feedback, we remain responsive to their evolving needs. We continuously assess our programs, making necessary adjustments to ensure they remain effective, relevant, and impactful for the families we serve.
By collecting their input through surveys, interviews, or feedback forms, we gain a deeper understanding of their experiences, satisfaction levels, and areas for improvement. This feedback is essential in refining our services to better meet the evolving needs of families.
Advocacy & leadership
The Family Advisory Council, which consists of JPP members and graduates of the program, makes recommendations to JPP staff regarding programs, initiatives, self-sufficiency applications, and events.
The Advisory Council assists in forming subcommittees, establishing relationships with new community partners, facilitating communication among families, increasing participation among families and partners, planning events, and representing JPP within the program and community. The Council is an integral part of JPP, ensuring that family voice is central to the program.
