Magnolia Place Network met to develop outcomes and indicators, as well as joint strategies, for addressing its four goals of nurturing parenting, school readiness, health and economic stability. The Research and Evaluation Committee of the Network discussed the potential of using the five protective factors identified by the Center for the Study of Social Policy as an organizing strategy and outcome measure.

The protective factors that contribute to positive outcomes for children include:
  1. Parental Resiliency of hope and personal power to act to improve oneself, one’s family, and one’s community;
  2. Knowledge of nurturing parenting;
  3. Social connectedness;
  4. Access basic services in times of need;
  5. Social/emotional competence of young children.
