Thriving Together has decades of experience providing training for federal, state, tribal, territory, community, program, provider, and family audiences.

We have decades of experience in the field and continue to be leading voices in promoting the best care and support for the youngest among us.

Evaluation and continuous quality improvement
“I feel so fortunate to have been referred to Jessica Bartlett when I was in need of technical assistance for my family support program. She was able to identify rather quickly that a training model was needed before a program evaluation could begin. Jess immediately put me at ease and provided a clear overview of how she could help based on the specific needs of the program.”
