Unique Family Services: 100 Families Model Has Unmatched Results

Jared Brown of For Others speaks about the model behind Restore Hope's 100 Families Initiative. Child welfare, he says, is not an immovable reality but rather a solvable problem. Brown underscored that while federal and state policy matters, “There is nothing the federal government or even the states can do to completely solve this problem. It takes local communities.” He pointed to the Restore Hope Model as proof that community-led, data-driven collaboration is changing outcomes. Through For Others’ partnership with Restore Hope, he has been studying how the model can be replicated beyond Arkansas. Restore Hope is a software and services organization dedicated to helping communities create transformational change through collaborative solutions like the 100 Families Initiative.
