UPCOMING WEBINARS
In September of 2020, The National Academies of Science added early childhood education to the list of proven policy initiatives included in its prestigious “The Science Behind It” series of issue briefs. In this webinar, leading early childhood researchers and policy experts will discuss the modern science of early learning and how it informs public policy for American children and families.

The suspension of 2020 assessments is a roadblock for measuring growth, but it’s not the end of the road: states can and should continue to measure student growth in 2021. Growth data will be crucial to understanding how COVID-19 impacted student progress and ensuring every student gets the support they need to get back on track for success.

State leaders cannot hope to create and implement policies that remove systemic barriers for children of color, non-binary, and LGBTQ youth without support and accountability from the communities they serve. Across the world, there exists a rich history of social movements fighting on behalf of intersectional lives lived at the margins of society. In this webinar, hear from leaders on the front lines of coalition building, activism, and necessary conversations, highlighting the voices of those who understand the importance of “good trouble” in the quest for dignity for all people and educational equity for all children.

Hearing from leaders in the education, housing, and health sectors, we will discuss how to support students who are struggling with housing and food security during the pandemic. How do we support their basic needs? How do we help them learn in such an environment?

This session will explore how career and technical education programs can engage students who would otherwise be at-risk of dropping out, while also preparing a strong workforce.

Speakers will discuss the particular challenges faced by adult learners – including those with some college but no degree – as they seek to re-engage with higher education. The discussion will focus on how the disruptions caused by the pandemic have made it even more urgent that policymakers provide support to adult learners.
