KCYDN Networking Event: Youth Truancy Intervention & Prevention

The King County Youth Development Network (KCYDN) is coordinating a series of networking events for youth workers throughout King County. The purpose of these events is to provide space for King County youth workers to learn about successful local programs, opportunities for partnering, and peer-led discussions and trainings on relevant youth topics. This series is driven by frontline staff.

This month, come learn about the BECCA Law, what Highline Schools is doing to help students, and efforts to intervene and prevent truancy from our panel of experts: Erin Grotting, Highline Schools Truancy Officer; Seth Kirby of Oasis; Susan Tipton of Somali Community Services Coalition; and Laurie Bohm of Community Schools Collaboration.

There will be time to share announcements and network- please bring materials to share. Light refreshments will be provided by Starbucks and Noah’s Bagels.

The King County Youth Development Network provides free networking & training opportunities for youth development staff. To suggest a topic, join the planning group, or ask questions contact: kyla@childrenandyouth.org
