Youth-Driven Design: Crafting Community Spaces that Center Youth Voice & Feedback November 22, 2024

FREE!

It’s easy to recognize when a community space is thriving – but it is sometimes less obvious what components make that possible. This session will explore how to build affirming environments for mentors and mentees that prioritize relationships, trust, and community building, particularly in the early stages of programs. Attendees will hear lessons learned from Silver Lining Mentoring program staff in creating meaningful spaces that optimize for relationships, foster community, and encourage shared learning. At the center of it all, we’ll share strategies for designing inclusive spaces informed by youth voice and feedback. This session is essential for folks committed to elevating youth voices in program design and building community spaces that thrive. We hope you’ll join us!
