For Program Directors & Full-Time Youth Workers
Brought to you by OST Learning Institute and STEAM Initiative
Join us at 9:30 for breakfast, networking, and an arrival activity!
Designed for Program Directors and other full-time youth workers, this retreat is a facilitated space for you to STRETCH (in more ways than one), with facilitators Melinda Barbosa & Melina O’Grady as guides. Join fellow Program Directors/Staff Leaders to strengthen your practice in program design and planning & find inspiration from your peers. The day includes a mini-presentation on "Stretch" to ignite creativity and innovation, along with a workshop from the MSYEP team sharing strategies on how to best support MSYEP staff. Join us for a fulfilling half-day of learning, collaboration, and inspiration as we gear up for an enriching summer experience for our youth across Cambridge!
