Wellbeing of Children and Families

Family together

Senator Morrsion advocates for a system where oversight does not end with the passage of laws, but continues through vigilant implementation and review processes. She recognizes the complexity of family services and protecting children’s welfare, and has been instrumental in establishing a Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) working group with three members from each caucus. This group has created a direct line of communication between legislators and DCFS to ensure accountability.

Senator Morrison knows how important it is to bring all stakeholders to the table. By bringing together experts, advocates, and community leaders, she fosters a collaborative environment where diverse perspectives are heard and innovative solutions can be created. This ensures that policies are grounded in real-world needs and experiences, thereby enhancing their effectiveness and impact.
