Family Resource Guide

Article Submission Request

Dear Community Partners,

The Children’s Services Council of Broward County produces a Family Resource Guide every year. We will soon begin production of the 2023-24 edition. The Guide includes a full listing of agencies and organizations that serve children and families in Broward, important information from the School Board of Broward County, informative articles on child safety, education, and development, as well as a full listing, by zip code, of childcare centers and the services they offer, produced in four languages.

Over 175,000 hard copies are distributed county-wide through schools, pediatric offices, markets, child-serving organizations, and community events. The Guide is also featured online, with articles shared with other local publications. If you would like to contribute an article on subjects related to Family Life, Health & Safety, Child Development, or Child Care, we invite you to submit a manuscript to the following specifications:

A.     700 – 800 words

B.     It must be “generic” to the subject, i.e., not an advertorial for any organization

C.     It must include a byline with the author’s qualifications

D.     As an epilogue, we are happy to include information specific to the author’s agency or organization.

Articles should be submitted no later than April 15th for consideration. As space is limited, we regret not being able to print every article submitted. We will endeavor, however, to share them on our website as part of our News feature. For more information or to submit an article for consideration, please contact Zoë Lewis, Community Engagement Manager, at 954-377-1116 or zlewis@cscbroward.org.

Thank you!

COMMUNITY PARTNERS’ CORNER
Every Hour Counts

Today we expect more of our students than ever before. Not only are academic expectations rising, but also employers say they want more emphasis on critical thinking, complex problem solving, written and oral communication, and applied knowledge in real-world settings.

Gather with us May 30 – June 1 to share, strategize, and connect. In the only convening of this type focused on peer-to-peer learning, we’ll explore how to develop community-wide solutions with young people and leaders from across communities.

Join forward-thinking leaders – intermediary leaders, community providers, non-profit partners, school district representatives, policymakers, funders, youth, researchers, and more – to make some waves!

SELF-CARE/MINDFULNESS

The Caring Community

Community can encompass a lot of things. In our case, it is the hundreds of volunteers that have helped with all these projects. We can’t list them all here, but if you go to the FB page of each program, you’ll see their faces, showing up again and again, to lend a hand to those in our community that need just a little help.
