Meeting the Needs of Adolescents Who Face Poverty and Adversity

Tue, Dec 12, 2017 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM EST

You are invited to join a GradNation webinar on the impacts of poverty and adversity on academic achievement and to learn about two research-based strategies for supporting students. Participants will learn about the research base that sheds light on how poverty, adversity, and outside-of-school factors impact students’ academic success. In addition, participants will hear from two organizations, Turnaround for Children and City Connects, that are successfully addressing adolescent needs outside of the classroom. Presenters will share lessons learned and resources from their models and offer insight into how the models could be replicated.
