Making Youth Engagement Possible: Making Youth Engagement Easier For Parent Centers
An important element to the success of youth with disabilities is youth engagement. However, with limited funding and additional grant requirements, parent centers are often limited in the time that they are able to spend on youth engagement. This webinar will introduce the newly developed RAISE Youth Engagement toolkit for parent centers. The toolkit and additional handouts will provide parent centers with a basic overview of youth leadership, engagement strategies, youth development, and tips on easily improving youth work.
Outcomes:
- Understand the new youth engagement tools that are available from raise
- Know where to access the new materials and how they can be helpful to their work at the parent center
Presenter:
Dr. Josie Badger, RAISE Co-Director
