Welcome to the Family Empowerment Podcast, Powered by Clover Nola! In this episode, our host Dr. Arnel Cosey explores the significant impact Clover Nola has on our community with special guest Crystal Russell, a devoted Clover parent and member of the Clover Parent Policy Council. Crystal shares her personal experiences with Clover’s programs and the positive influence they have had on her four-year-old daughter, highlighting our comprehensive services, including Head Start and Early Head Start.

Crystal discusses the importance of our wraparound services that support not only the child's needs but also the family's needs, such as nutrition, career development, and access to resources. She also shares her role in the parent policy council, advocating for families and the broader community, and recounts her advocacy trip to Washington D.C., emphasizing the need for continued federal funding and support for our essential services.
