Join us for an interactive full morning (9-12 a.m. Pacific Standard Time) pre-conference to envision a future in Washington that harnesses this moment of unprecedented opportunity for systemic change in our sector as we begin to emerge from the pandemic. Seeds that have been planted over the past decade have really taken root over the past 18 months, growth that could result in a thriving and more equitable ecosystem of expanded learning opportunities for our young people. However, the ecosystem is still fragile. We must tend the soil, care for new growth, and prune what’s not serving us. Come learn about these growing opportunities and help us to envision a thriving ecosystem. We will begin by grounding us in what expanded learning system building has looked like in Washington State and invite you to share your part of the story. We will then hear about local, regional and statewide system building efforts that need to be tended. Using breakout groups and interactive virtual tools, you will have a chance to share your vision and commitment to building this ecosystem. We will end with an inspirational closing that will set you up to engage with the rest of the Bridge Conference over the following days.
