If you are a funder, educator, youth worker, volunteer coordinator, or represent a youth-serving organization, you will find this session on youth data from the Hampton Roads region from the Virginia Community Engagement Index particularly beneficial.

Participants will have an opportunity to see and learn how the data impacts their work and have utility in assessing gaps, building context, sharing ideas and building partnerships that will improve outcomes for young people in our area. 

Or you can join W&M Civic & Community Engagement for their summer workshop, convening partners from local community organizations as well as W&M faculty and staff, to share information and learn together, build and sustain relationships, and develop plans for what's next in our shared work for thriving communities. 

The agenda includes:

• Developing Civic Identity in Ourselves & Students 
• Presentations from Faculty in the W&M Community Engaged Accelerator 
• Lunch + Networking Hour
• Afternoon Workshops* on youth engagement data, an upcoming mental health community conversation series, and an appreciative inquiry experience focused on experiences engaging with W&M students.
