Cydney Nestor
ODHS D3 District Manager
"What is getting in the way of permanency for families? Our staff and supervisors don't get asked those questions very often from the public."
"We, as a district, would not have been able to do this on our own-- ... there is always something pulling our attention in CW ..."
"To have CP3 at the table with us, to listen and then to say, "we're with you on this, "and then to do the things we aren't capable of..."
"..able to be flexible, nimble..."
Ormond Fredericks
ODHS D3 COO
"...29 years and I have never experienced partnership like this. When you go to a community meeting and your are DHS.. it is not our place to ask for help..."
"...never experienced this kind of partnership where community is asking, "how can we help? reduce the number of children in foster care and help you do your job."
"None of these 3 initiatives (Safe@Home, Connect, Housing First/ KFT) would have happened without CP3.. cultivating relationships ."
