Building Connections: Authentic Engagement with Youth and Parents
Date: Tuesday, July 14, 2026
Time: 10 am - 12 pm EST
Location: Virtual
Cost: $25
An out-of-school time program is only as strong as the community it builds. But how do we move past low attendance at parent nights and passive participation from youth?
Building Connections: Authentic Engagement with Youth and Parents is an interactive training designed to transform how your program connects with the families you serve. Participants will dive into actionable, research-backed strategies to shift youth from "attendees" to leaders, and turn parents from "bystanders" to active partners.
When youth feel heard, they show up. When parents feel valued, they advocate. Join us to unlock the full potential of your program’s community!
The deadline to register is July 13 at 10 am.
