In recognition of the innovative and effective summer jobs, learning and meals partnerships in cities, towns and counties across the country, the White House and the National Summer Learning Association (NSLA) will convene a Champions of Change event to highlight leaders who are turning summer from a time of learning loss into a time of great gain.
This FREE conference will give you the opportunity to redefine summer with activities that are meaningful, support mastery and expand horizons. The goal of the conference is to provide tools and resources empowering you to deliver the highest quality program possible.
