DYCD Positive Youth Development & Youth Leadership Fall Cohort Open House
by
DYCD Positive Youth Development & Youth Leadership Cohort Open House
The Youth Development Institute has a Technical Assistance grant from DYCD to provide training around both their Positive Youth Development and Youth Leadership Frameworks. This year we are offering a 10-session blended cohort that will look at integrating both Frameworks into program design. Following the completion of the 10 sessions, there will be 3 Workscope Labs held in late Winter/early Spring to help participants with program modifications and Workscope development. In addition, participants will receive approximately 10 hours of either on-site or phone consultation support. On-site support could include, program observation, line-staff training and strategic planning.
To inform organizational senior leaders we are hosting a Q & A Open House for organizations who might be interested in sending program staff.
Goals of the cohort are to:
- Provide participants with the opportunity to become fluid in the language of the Frameworks to be more successful during DYCD site visits.
- Provide participants with support around program modification and Workscope development to incorporate the language of both Frameworks
- Provide participants with effective strategies and support for implementing DYCD’s Positive Youth Development and Youth Leadership Frameworks into program practice
- Provide participants with effective strategies to engage line staff, participants, stakeholders and organization leadership in the implementing of DYCD’s Frameworks.
