Storytelling: Flexing Your Power

November is Family Stories Month, a time to share the experiences that shaped you.

Your story carries more weight than you might think. The things families live through every day help shape the laws and programs made at local, state, and federal levels.

Join the Family Support Network of Region A and Andrea Clark of the Positive Childhood Alliance of NC for a workshop on how to use your voice and tell your story with confidence.

Why Your Story Matters

• Strengthens family identity and keeps your history alive

• Builds connection across generations

• Gives decision makers a clearer picture of family life

• Helps shape policies that support families

• Shows how programs actually work in the real world
