Your Expertise Matters: Join the Collaborative Effort to Support Youth and Families

Professionals who work directly with youth and families — including teachers, counselors, social workers, healthcare providers, and community organizers — play a pivotal role in shaping outcomes. Your daily work connects systems with the people they serve and provides critical insight into what supports are effective.

Our Community Our Future invites you to collaborate across sectors, share your expertise, and help design innovative solutions that address real-world challenges. Whether participating in cross-agency workgroups, training sessions, or community planning, your knowledge helps build stronger, more responsive systems.

By joining this collaborative effort, you help ensure that programs and policies are grounded in the realities of those on the front lines — and that youth and families receive the best possible support.

Kaitlin “Kait” Fedro is the System of Care Coordinator with Our Community Our Future, where she develops resources, programming, and collaborative tools to strengthen supports for youth and families across the Heart of Texas region. Her passion for this work is deeply rooted in her lived experience with a mental health disorder that began in early adolescence, her role as a mother to a young, neurodivergent child, and her background as an early childhood development professional. Outside of work, Kait enjoys reading with an extra-large cup of coffee and visiting favorite community spots with her family.
