This fourth annual event is an opportunity to help support our statewide co-created vision entitled: ALL-IN CT Equity4Change that fosters engagement, education, and mobilization of diverse parents and partners who are passionate about children’s preventive issues to gain the knowledge on what is happening at the local and statewide levels to make informed decision by developing and maintaining linkages with stakeholders who work hand in hand to find solution based thinking and action steps to end poverty and racism with better health, safety, equity and wellness for all children through collective action.
