Trends in CYD Programs
August 28, 1:00 – 2:00 p.m. ET, Free
Creative youth development programs, with their grassroots and community-based origins, are a heterogeneous field of practice that has in recent years codified characteristics of high quality CYD through a series of frameworks. At the same time, CYD practitioners are committed to reflection and ongoing refinement, to programs being actively shaped by young people, and being connected to and a reflection of their communities. Therefore, CYD program practices are continuously in development.
Join us for an overview of the soon-to-be published Trends in CYD Programs landscape analysis from Americans for the Arts and the Creative Youth Development National Partnership. During the webinar, researcher Denise Montgomery of CultureThrive will discuss five current trends in CYD program development:
- Holistic Approaches Growing as Needs Grow
- Collaboration Across Sectors
- New Generation of Program Staff with New Approaches
- Scaling by Depth
- Establishing Creative Career Pathways
Denise will be joined field experts who will share their perspectives as practitioners and who will bring depth and dimension to this national conversation.
