Family Action Plan Initiative
Welcome to the Family Action Plan Initiative
At the Heartland Workers Center, we believe in the power of preparation and community support. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the Family Action Plan—a personalized roadmap to keep families informed, prepared, and resilient in any situation. Rooted in the Cultural Wealth Model, this initiative empowers families to build on their strengths and offers practical tools to navigate legal, educational, and economic challenges. Together, we can prepare for a brighter future.
Family Safety Plan Presentation
Developing a Family Safety Plan is an essential component of the Family Action Plan. This step-by-step presentation is tailored to meet the unique needs of our families. The presentation aims to:
Helping families create a Family Safety Plan that will help them be prepared in the event of any disruption or separation
Educating families on their rights and responsibilities when interacting with law enforcement
Provide practical strategies and resources to help families leverage their strengths
Know Your Rights
We provide a comprehensive library of resources about Know Your Rights initiative, available for download and printing. These materials are designed to inform and empower families and community members by equipping them with essential knowledge about their legal rights and responsibilities. These resources can be shared widely within your community to help others stay informed and prepared.
