Event Overview
The Learning Dreams model for educational engagement teaches child welfare workers how to use Learning Dreams to motivate youth and help them make long term progress in their lives. It will also teach workers how to use creative community building strategies to effectively support the learning dreams of youth in the child welfare system. Learning Dreams is built on the premise that actively supporting a culture of learning in homes and communities creates a foundation for students’ educational success.
