Family-Centered Coaching

For June’s Coffee Chat, we talked about Family-Centered Coaching (FCC)! This framework is the foundation of everything we do to support young moms as they take powerful first steps toward economic mobility and family well-being. It drives our mindset and our practice! FCC affirms young families’ innate skills and strengths to engage them where they are right now, and partner together for long-term success. New Moms staff discussed what FCC is and how we implement it into our programs in a brief, casual Q&A over coffee or tea.
