Cater to your audience, HOPE is flexible.
[I have] Brought awareness and interest to PCEs [positive childhood experiences]. People have been considering how Protective Factors and PCEs are connected and intersect.
[I have been] Spreading the impact of positive childhood experiences and the HOPE framework not only to the caregivers of my patients, but all stakeholders involved with children and adolescents.
Great training, well put together, concepts are easy to grasp and can be incorporated into work being done around ACEs
We [as HOPE Facilitators] have trained many child care providers and helped them to understand that they can legitimately make a lasting impact in the lives of children. We help them focus on creating positive experiences for the children in their care. Interaction by interaction, they are able to improve outcomes for them.
I have been able to impact my organization and community by speaking about the HOPE framework beliefs and practices through workshops and seminars.
The HOPE Framework provides a solution-based method for solving the most critical problems facing our communities today. It gives community leaders HOPE when collaborating to meet the needs of its citizens and creates a win-win situation for everyone.
The online videos [and] the opportunity to talk to others in the training [were the most helpful aspects.] DO IT!!
The HOPE framework has allowed me to talk about positive experiences for children AND adults in a variety of ways. If you are interested in discovering ways to improve organizational and community cultures – HOPE has been a great “on ramp” for spreading these ideas in a variety of settings.
I have been able to offer HOPE information to the newest hospital residents in our town and I have been part of a team that updated our Kindergarten Readiness Evaluations to be strength-based rather than deficit-based. I use the HOPE lens in my daily work with the public and my coworkers as well as my personal life with my autistic child. I was recently part of a team to bring HOPE to our Commission.
