The CICW offers a number of ways for professionals and students to get involved in the work of the Center toward the goal of building the capacities of the U.S. child welfare systems and the community organizations they partner with to respond to the unique needs of immigrant families and children. Here are ways that you can get involved and stay up to date on new resources, opportunities, initiatives, and more.
CICW Professional Networks
The CICW coordinates two professional networks, one for researchers and the other for child welfare practitioners and partners, to facilitate collaboration and networking among professionals across the U.S. who work at the intersection of immigration and child welfare issues.
CICW Newsletter
The CICW strengthens and supports state and local agencies committed to the welfare of immigrant families and children involved in, or at risk of involvement in, the public child welfare system. We work collaboratively and in partnership with service providers, helping build capacity to promote positive outcomes for immigrant families and their children with regard to safety, permanency, and well-being.
