We were honored to recently host more than 110 leaders from rural, remote, frontier and Indigenous CACs across 37 states for our Rural CAC Convening in Bozeman, Montana! We truly appreciated the great interactions from the panel discussions providing solution-based information for our rural CAC leaders to share and reflect upon how to best meet some of the unique challenges that CACs face in serving children and families in rural communities, such as access to resources, training and education, partnerships, hiring and staffing, community awareness and outreach, and Accreditation support and resources. Thank you so much to everyone for coming and providing great insights to help serve children and families in these communities! We're committed to continue connecting our rural communities and have already launched a Rural CAC Leaders community on our NCA Engage platform that our members can join to ask their peers questions, share ideas, resources and solutions specific to rural populations. If you're a member serving rural areas, please join the community with your Engage account: https://lnkd.in/g_hZZJC4
