Creating Space for Advocacy Conversations |March 8, 2019, 2:00-3:00 p.m. EDT
Advocacy is a key component to family and parent leadership. It’s important to create a space that is conducive to allowing families to identify those pressing issues that most impact their communities.
Many times, creating this space begins with conversations around race and equity and allowing families to speak openly about how they view the injustices in their communities. If parents have the freedom and space to share their experiences with injustice, they can begin acting towards advocacy efforts.
This session will cover trust and community-building exercises and frameworks for conversations about race and equity as tools for advocacy efforts.
Presenter: Rosa Guzman-Snyder, Director of Community Development, National Center for Families Learning

Developmental Relationships Framework |April 12, 2019, 2:00-3:00 p.m. EDT
Relationships are too important to leave to chance. Search Institute’s research suggests that when young people experience relationships with adults that are characterized by five essential elements, their attitudes, behaviors, and outcomes are better, and their risk behaviors are lower. Educators, youth workers, parents, and other adults can use Search Institute’s new Developmental Relationships Framework to transform the connections they build
with and among young people. During this webinar we will share some of the lessons that Search Institute is
learning about creating youth-serving organizations where developmental relationships thrive.
Presenters: Fatima Muhammad, Director of Youth & Family Solutions, and Gene Roehlkepartain, Vice President of Research and Development, Search Institute
