The Forum for Youth Investment is delighted to be teaming up with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond to help change the odds that children and youth throughout Virginia will be ready for college, work and life. Together, we are convening leaders from throughout the commonwealth on January 24 to introduce participants to a different way of thinking about what it takes to change the odds for children and youth in Virginia and, more specifically, what youth development programs can do to "up their game" individually and together.
The co-designed agenda promises an interactive day of shared learning combining keynotes, workshops and roundtable discussions. Conference faculty include the Forum's Karen Pittman, Merita Irby, Larry Pasti and Priscilla Little. Nancy Deutsch, director of Youth-Nex at UVA's Center to Promote Effective Youth Development at the Curry School of Education, and Candy Markman, retired planning director for Afterschool Initiatives for the Nashville Mayor's Office of Children and Youth are bringing state and local perspectives to the conversation.
