Continuing the Movement:
Why a Workforce Summit?

In December 2023, over 200 stakeholders came together for the inaugural It Takes All of Us Summit to celebrate the expanded learning workforce and imagine a future where the youth-serving field is valued and supported with fair working conditions and just wages. We created a space for thought partnership and strategic planning through panels, workshops, and action-planning sessions to cultivate a movement that uplifts the expanded learning workforce.

Learn through panels and workshops highlighting innovative workforce strategies

Participate in collective action planning sessions to further your workforce efforts

Connect with field leaders, experts, and like-minded practitioners
