Afterschool Webinars

Join us for a conversation with experts in the field who will provide practical tips and suggestions on policy and advocacy at all levels, discuss the implications of policy in advancing equity, and discuss the important ways that policy can help ensure that all youth have access to high quality youth development programs that are able to address adverse childhood experiences and create supportive, healing-centered environments for children and youth.

This mindfulness session will be focused on the power of expressing gratitude. Even in the midst of so many unknowns and the need for so much resilience, we can find ways to be grateful for things in our lives both big and small.

Starting at 6 p.m. ET, four youth leaders from afterschool programs (ages 13-16) will speak in a panel/Q&A format, sharing their afterschool experiences (pre and during COVID), and discussing what youth need to thrive.
