Join the Grandfamilies & Kinship Support Network for the webinar, “Evidence-Based Kinship Navigator Programs: Which Federally Approved Model is Right for Your State or Tribe?,” on Tuesday, November 18, from 2:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. ET.

This webinar will feature leaders from three evidence-based kinship navigator program models: Kinship Interdisciplinary Navigation Technologically Advanced Model (KIN-TECHTM) – Florida, Foster Kinship Navigator Program – Nevada, and the Washington State Kinship Navigator Program. Each of these models connects kin caregivers and their families, most of whom are not involved with the child welfare system, to critical services and supports. Each program has been found to be evidence-based by the Title IV-E Prevention Services Clearinghouse, and therefore they – and any other title IV-E agency following their model with fidelity – are eligible for ongoing, uncapped title IV-E federal reimbursement of 50% of all costs to operate the program. Several states are already following these models with fidelity and obtaining ongoing federal reimbursement for their kinship navigator programs. Register for the November 18 Webinar.

đź“… Thursday, November 20, 2025

Join Generations United’s Intergenerational Housing Learning Network for the upcoming virtual event, “Designing for Connection in Intergenerational Housing,” on Thursday, November 20, 2025, 2:00–3:00 PM ET, and explore how thoughtful design can strengthen intergenerational connection and community.

You’ll hear from Brian Carleton, Principal and Co-founder of Carleton Hart Architecture, who for more than three decades, has dedicated his work to building stronger, more vibrant communities by engaging directly with the people who live in them. His approach to design is rooted in empathy and collaboration—bringing together complex stakeholder groups to co-create spaces that foster belonging and inclusion.

Brian’s work throughout the Pacific Northwest has helped shape intentional and supportive communities that serve marginalized populations through affordable, intergenerational, and inclusive housing. His experience spans institutional, historic, spiritual, and public projects, as well as partnerships with culturally specific communities to ensure designs honor their traditions and values.
