Trauma-Resilient After-School and Summer Learning Programs: A Vision for Transformational Change

Half of public school students in Los Angeles report moderate to severe traumatic stress symptoms. After-school and summer learning programs have always been dedicated to positive youth development, but LA’s BEST Afterschool Enrichment Program has realized that to truly address the impacts of trauma, we must go deeper. In this session, we will discuss how we embraced a trauma-resilient approach and Harmony SEL’s social emotional learning program to reinvigorate a large-scale expanded learning system, equip staff to care for themselves as well as students, and transform not only our programs but also our systems and culture.

Radical Affordability: Strategies And Considerations For Delivering Low-Cost Degrees

The average annual tuition for a non-profit, private university is $39,529.

Join us as we talk about using degree program structure, variable pace, integrated learning materials, transparent and flexible pricing, and collaboration with accreditors to achieve affordability while maintaining quality and outcomes.
