A Look Back in History - The First Episode Revisited

A Look Back in History - The First Episode Revisited

Author: NCSEA October 30, 2024 Duration: 50:57

Today's episode was recorded on location in Washington DC in February of 2018 at the NCSEA Policy Forum.  Joe Mamlin and Lori Rumage-Cain host, and bring back to share that very first On Location program — a conversation with Alisha Griffin (independent Human Services consultant, and former Directors of the child support program in California and New Jersey); and Robert Doar (who was a Morgridge Fellow in Poverty Studies at the American Enterprise Institute; and is the former Commissioner of New York City’s Human Resources Administration and the former child support Director for the State of New York).  Listen up as we take a look back in history — the first episode revisited.


Ever wonder what happens when you pull a microphone out at a conference or a community meeting? That's the spirit of NCSEA On Location. Instead of polished studio sessions, this podcast captures conversations where they naturally happen-in hallways after a panel, at international gatherings, or in quiet corners of bustling events. You'll hear directly from Human Services professionals, from caseworkers to policy architects, along with advocates and community stakeholders who are deeply involved in the system. The discussions are immediate and grounded, offering a raw, unfiltered look at the challenges and innovations in public service. Each episode feels like you’ve stepped into a meaningful, spontaneous dialogue, one that continues long after the formal agenda ends. The authentic atmosphere is even complemented by original music from Joe Mamlin, whose granted compositions frame these real-world recordings. Brought to you by NCSEA, this series is for anyone curious about the human stories behind government services, preferring the sound of genuine exchange over a rehearsed script. Tune in to a podcast that truly travels, bringing you voices from the field exactly as they were heard on the ground.
