Event Details

YDPN's Four Points Informational and Networking Session - Come network with your peers, learn more about youth worker needs, and find out how you can support the YDPN’s Four Points of Connection in very realistic ways.

PLUS! Dinner will be provided!

YDPN's Four Points of Connection are:

Financial Connections: Empowering youth workers to become financially self sufficient by connecting youth workers to economic resources that build financial literacy and awareness and address affordable housing, health care, and loan forgiveness needs; and convening youth workers and decision makers to identify solutions to inadequate compensation, unclear career pathways, and recruitment and turnover challenges;

Professional Connections: Empowering youth workers to develop themselves professionally and collectively by giving youth workers equitable access to relevant educational and professional development opportunities, especially those led by peers;

People Connections: Empowering youth workers to celebrate their work and intentionality through our “I am a youth worker because…” Campaign and other celebratory events, and embarking on a social messaging campaign that promotes youth development as important work;

Intrapersonal Connections: Empowering youth workers to look inward and connect to their intentionality through creating spaces and tools that promote reflection and values clarification and development; healing, rejuvenation, and self-care; and advocacy skill development.
