@DouglasHamner @ericareport That’s a misleading way to read the change in life expectancy. The shift was actually due to reduced infant mortality. People don’t live that much longer than they used to.

@Johnnyboy747 @DrVoetsek This is an old quote. Not my idea. It’s a common way of depicting collaboration that dates back over 25 years. https://t.co/6EYUwPEaQ7

@RRespawned @DrVoetsek I wrote that a year ago. A lot of people have since gotten sick. Some countries implemented lock downs and some did not. The virus did exactly what past plagues have done. Herd immunity has not been reached anywhere on earth that I am aware of. Instead the virus mutated.

As we strive to reduce violence, I often say we are trying to solve an economic problem, not a crime problem.
If we want men to leave the street economy, they must have opportunities in the legal economy.

“English-language learners are severely underrepresented in gifted and talented education programs in the nation's K-12 schools—and the problem may be rooted in the procedures and policies that schools use to identify gifted students.” https://t.co/u0cXVUYGDy

What role does race play in the systems you are creating? You must answer that hard question and be honest about it. -Womazetta Jones, @RIEOHHS #HVSummit

[Matthew Poes @MatthewPoes]

@colleenawilson @jonkorfmacher @HV_HARC We had some open discussions about being conscientious of the fact that we don’t always recognize how we or the situations we put people in may be perceived. What is comfortable to you might be intimidating to me. I think it’s a critical lesson in our work on engagement.

[Matthew Poes @MatthewPoes]

“If anyone doesn’t truly believe that race is not playing a significant role in this world, then you are operating in a place where you cannot help families” a great quote from Womazetta Jones. She’s inspiring us in how we think about Race in the work we do. @HVsummit @theOunce

“Collaboration is an unnatural act between non-consenting adults.” Yet today we hear from three states that share how they’ve found a way to move past those issues and openly collaborate.

Go Lesley! So proud to see my former colleague sharing the amazing work in Illinois. She embodies the view that children can’t wait. @theOunce @HV_HARC #HVsummit #HOmevisiting

Three biggest fears in life:
1) Fear of dying 2) Fear of public speaking, and 3) Fear of dying while public speaking. @theOunce #HVsummit

@lauren_supplee You have some great notable quotable’s today.

[Matthew Poes @MatthewPoes]

I agree with @lauren_supplee. We focus on the deficits in families, worse yet the inequitable deficits for some groups of families. It doesn’t feel good to be constantly told how bad your life is. Benefit in focusing on the strengths that people, cultures, & communities bring.

[Matthew Poes @MatthewPoes]

@HV_HARC @AprilC_Wilson @ChildTrends @SafeCareModel @JBA_News @lauren_supplee @aroundhim_d In addition, we focus often on the criticality of the relationship as a path for delivering these active ingredients. Sometimes that path is blocked and we need to consider the different modalities to deliver the active ingredients. #homevisitingworks
