Parent Voice Toolkit

Hello partners!

We’re excited to introduce you to the Our Stories Matter Parent Voice Campaign Toolkit. The purpose of this campaign is to help First Steps Kent and partners elevate authentic parent stories across social media and outreach materials, showing the real impact of Ready by Five funding in Kent County.

Parent stories connect with hearts and minds — they bring data to life, influence decision-makers, and inspire our community to act. By sharing these voices, we highlight both the challenges families face and the solutions making a difference.

Please use the following hashtags when posting:
