Engaging Elected Officials

Public officials play a crucial role in the campaign to increase the effectiveness and sustainability of youth service. There are over half a million elected officials in the United States; 96% of them are local officials. Learn how to engage local elected officials as high profile champions and supporters of your service programs and organizations. As citizens, we all need to ask our elected officials to be engaged on our issues; this webinar will cover who to ask, what to ask, and how to ask.

Engaging Elementary Age Children as Service Leaders

They are savvy negotiators, open-minded risk-takers, and resourceful innovators. They also are tireless workers, ask hard questions, and care deeply about fairness. Who are we talking about Eight year olds. Yes, eight year olds and elementary school-age children in general who are still our invisible partners in improving communities.

Genetic research is showing that helping others may be part of our DNA, but too many educators do not consider children ready to participate in service-learning. There are numerous examples over the centuries of children leading social change, but they don't make it into the history books nor do we seek to learn from them.

Through specific and little known examples and resources, this webinar will help you discover new ways of thinking about and working with children as equal partners in service.
