Hi Family,

When I started this journey, I knew the road for grandparents raising grandchildren was steep. I knew we were often "Invisible," doing the heavy lifting in the quiet corners of our homes.

This week, we hit a milestone I once only dreamed of: Episode 100.

To celebrate these 100 chapters of our story, we aren’t just looking back—we’re moving forward. I am thrilled to announce that The Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Channel is officially live on YouTube!

This isn't just a place to watch videos; it’s our new digital boardroom. To kick off our launch week, I’ve uploaded a slate of powerful highlights to help you navigate this journey with a "Warrior’s Heart."

You can watch these right now:

• The 2.7 Million Manifesto: Our vision for every kinship caregiver in America.
• Healing Family Trauma: Rachel Fulginiti on the topic of foster parenting and adoption (Ep 95).
• Building Emotional Intelligence: Dr. Gloria Vanderhorst on the "3 R’s" for raising boys (Ep 97).
• The First Year Survival: Dr. Anthony Silard on the topic of forgiveness (Ep 98).

I have a small favor to ask of our inner circle:

As we "soft launch" this channel today, the YouTube algorithm needs a signal that our mission matters. If you could click the link below, Subscribe, and leave a comment on the "Welcome" video, it tells the world that the 2.7 million children we represent are worth noticing.

Next week, I’ll be releasing the full video highlights from our 100th-episode milestone with systems expert Pat Hankin. But for today, let’s celebrate how far we’ve come.

You are the Invisible CEOs of your families. Thank you for letting me be a part of your boardroom for 100 episodes. We are just getting started.

With a warrior’s heart,

Laura Brazan
