Why Choosing Each Other is The Way to Go... DESCRIPTION:This session explores the purpose and function of DEIB+ (Diversity\, Equity\, Inclusion\, Belonging\, and related practices)\, with particular attention to distinguishing inclusion from belonging. Participants will examine how belonging extends beyond organizational initiatives and emerges through intentional\, mutual relationships built on the decision to “choose each other.” Rather than treating belonging as a program or outcome alone\, the session reframes it as an ongoing commitment rooted in connection\, care\, reciprocity\, and shared responsibility. Participants will also reflect on the values that exist beneath common DEIB+ language and social trends\, identifying practical\, sustainable actions that foster meaningful relationships and strengthen cultures of belonging in their communities and organizations. \nTwo Continuing Education Units (CEUs) will be available for participants with social work and professional counseling licenses (LSW\, LCSW\, LPC\, LCPC).

Illinois Collaboration on Youth (ICOY) seeks to focus the attention of Illinois’ elected officials in all branches of government on the systematic challenges facing the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) and the private agencies that deliver many of the services within their communities. \nWe work continuously with lawmakers and other stakeholders to educate them about the impact of nearly two decades of neglect of this system\, and to advocate for the investments and reforms that are needed to fund and sustain the community-based providers of child welfare services. \nThese calls will take place twice a month and we are asking that all participants register to join.
