Learn step-by-step how youth and adults can partner to strengthen child welfare systems through authentic engagement and shared leadership.
Elevating Youth Engagement is a free training series developed by the Annie E. Casey Foundation in partnership with Cetera Inc.
The curriculum provides practical, step-by-step lessons for child welfare professionals and young people with foster care experience to learn how to collaborate effectively. It’s designed for organizations that want to move from understanding why youth engagement matters to knowing how to make it real through shared decision making, co-leadership and authentic partnership.
