More and more adolescents are involved in civic engagement—joining marches, supporting key causes, and fund-raising.  Does such activism provide a psycho-social protective factor during a time of identity development?  Does it support adolescent development, and if so, how?

This workshop will begin with a theoretical perspective on civic engagement among adolescents.  Panelists will then describe models of engagement in local independent schools, the role of educators, and share successes and challenges with adolescents.

ABOUT PRESENTERS:

Program Flyer: Flyer -Adolescent Development

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Discuss the roles of activism and civic engagement in adolescent development.
• List tools and frameworks that support and empower students to participate in activism and civic engagement.
• Describe the ways that activism and civic engagement can look and sound different in various contexts.
• Demonstrate three models of activism and civic engagement that support adolescent development.
