Here are six tips to get you started.","page_layout":[{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_accordion","acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_accordion":{"heading":"","items":[{"title":"1. Build the right team","html":"Developing your diligent recruitment plan should be a team effort. Consider creating a workgroup that includes a variety of perspectives. Members of the workgroup could potentially include:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Leaders in your organization who are responsible for one or more of the required elements in the plan.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Data experts who can offer insight into what quantitative and qualitative information should be collected, where you can find it, and how to interpret it.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Community partners whose experience and services can provide valuable perspectives.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Individuals with lived experience who can speak most effectively regarding what actually benefits those the plan aims to help.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>This could include current or previous foster and adoptive families, birth families, child welfare professionals, and youth in care.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Diverse voices who can help implement strategies for mitigating individual and systemic biases.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nTogether, your team should review the elements of an effective diligent recruitment plan, assign individuals to sections aligning with their strengths and areas of expertise, identify measurable goals, and craft a timeline for developing and implementing the plan."},{"title":"2. Build on what you have","html":"You don\u2019t need to start from scratch.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Look for ways to expand upon existing information, knowledge, and momentum. Does your agency already have a format for plans that can be used as a template or starting point that can be adapted to fit your needs? If not, visit the National Center for Diligent Recruitment\u2019s website to see the ideas listed in our toolkit for developing recruitment plans.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Draw inspiration from your agency\u2019s mission, core values, and practices for children and families. Your organization might already have a practice model that can be used as a foundation for your diligent recruitment plan.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Identify relevant agency-wide efforts that intersect with your diligent recruitment goals and efforts. Examples could include existing practice models or special initiatives.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Revisit prior successes and lessons learned, as potential insights can be found in previous grants or child and family service reviews (CFSRs).<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Explore current requirements related to recruitment, development, or support of families. You might find inspiration in such places as tribal-state agreements or contracts, consent decrees or settlement agreements, CFSR program improvement plans, or border agreements with neighboring states.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>"},{"title":"3. Dive into the data","html":"The better you understand your data, the better you understand what families and youth actually need.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Take a fresh look at the data existing for the children in foster care with the goal of gaining a clearer picture of all their needs. For example, what are their medical, emotional, or behavioral needs? By identifying what youth actually need, you can begin to offer meaningful solutions.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Do the same thing for your existing foster, adoptive, and kinship families.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Integrate these two data sets and compare and contrast the findings for both children in care and the families. Understanding both group\u2019s needs and how they relate will help you identify diligent recruitment objectives.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Let the data lead the way. Use the information gleaned to tailor your plan.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Seek guidance regarding your data and its analysis. While data is crucial for effective planning, it can also be intimidating, especially if your existing systems don\u2019t provide all of the information you need in a clear way. You can <a href=\"https:\/\/diligentrecruitment.org\/contact-us\/\">contact us<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/diligentrecruitment.org\/resource-listing\/?keyword=&amp;topic%5B%5D=50&amp;format%5B%5D=all\">visit our knowledge hub<\/a> to learn ways to best use your data.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>"},{"title":"4. Learn from others","html":"You don\u2019t have to reinvent the wheel, and you don\u2019t have to go it alone.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Look at recruitment plans from other child welfare systems for examples of developing, writing, and structuring a recruitment plan. You can see state diligent recruitment plans by searching the Children\u2019s Bureau\u2019s website for state reports, including CFSPs and APSRs, and searching within each CFSP or APSR for the section on diligent recruitment.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Join our <a href=\"https:\/\/diligentrecruitment.org\/learn-from-your-peers\/\">diligent recruitment peer group<\/a> to connect with peers around the country who are working on diligent recruitment.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Ask us!

Remember your reason","html":"Let your \u201cwhy\u201d fuel momentum. While the previous tips offered guidance regarding how you can build your plan, what matters most is why you\u2019re doing so. At each step, remember that all of your diligent recruitment efforts should ensure that your foster, adoptive, and kinship families are prepared and supported to meet the needs of children in foster care."},{"title":"6. Maintain your momentum","html":"Getting the plan developed, written, and approved is an exciting accomplishment. Maintaining that momentum is the heart of the work. Develop benchmarks to monitor your progress, and consider establishing a monthly or quarterly workgroup to review data, discuss current processes and goals, and address arising barriers."}]}}],"related_resource_feed":{"display":"topic","heading":"More like this","link":"","posts":null,"select_taxonomy_terms":[]}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
