Webinar: Mobilizing for Local- and Systems-Level Impact: Lessons from Building Youth Futures

Webinar Description: Many young people face barriers and challenges on the journey through high school and onto further education and/or employment. Having basic needs met, positive relationships with trusted adults, access to an array of well-coordinated support services and relationships with adult allies as well as alternative pathways to a desired future can inspire hope and offer the encouragement needed to transform one’s trajectory.

Communities Building Youth Futures (CBYF) is a national network of 20 small, rural, remote, and Indigenous communities that – individually and together – are on a learning journey to better understand barriers that young people face. Using the Collective Impact Framework, these initiatives mobilize and unite entire communities to work with young people to identify, prototype and co-develop new approaches to promote youth success.

In this webinar, the Tamarack Institute’s CBYF Director Angelina Pelletier joins Sylvia Cheuy to share highlights and insights from the first four years of CBYF’s learning network. Join us for a dynamic conversation about what it takes – and what becomes possible – when whole communities are mobilized to creatively reimagine new solutions with and for young people.

Date: April 24, 2024 | 1:00 – 2:00 p.m. (ET)
