When parents can’t meet a child’s needs, relatives or family friends often step in to care for the child. The materials below are part of a campaign, produced by the Center for Child and Family Studies, to help the South Carolina Department of Social Services raise awareness about resources and options available to these kinship caregivers. The Center won an Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts (AIVA) 2020 Communicator Award of Distinction for the campaign.

A selection of products designed for SC DSS Child Welfare Training for new Case Managers.

Developed in collaboration with the South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation Department, the Academy is designed to help youth prepare to enter higher education, training, or the workforce. Our work on the project includes an interactive, experiential curriculum and media.
