Episode 119: Lifting Parent Voices panel, live from the 2025 CalWORKS Training Academy

In Part One of this special two-part series of Keeping It Real with Tiff and Carl, Carl introduces us to an incredibly meaningful experience for he and Tiff while serving as co-emcees at the CalWORKs Training Academy. In this episode, listeners are introduced to a powerful parent panel featuring members of Parent Voices, an organization of parents who have navigated the human services system firsthand and now advocate for families across California. Tiff and Carl guide the panelists through heartfelt conversation, honest reflections, and deeply insightful perspectives on what it truly means to experience these systems, depend on them, and push for change within them. Stay tuned for Part Two, which will be released later this week.
