Featuring Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz, assistant professor, and Lalitha Vasudevan, associate professor, Teacher's College, Columbia University Access to sound educational opportunities continues to be a challenging goal for young people who are already embroiled in the complicated systems of foster care and juvenile justice, whom the facilitators identify as court-involved youth. In this talk, the facilitators will share examples from their experience as co-teachers of a yearlong, participatory seminar in which they bring together graduate students and court-involved youth in an attempt to create opportunities for inquiry, understanding, and support of the young people's educational wellbeing.
This event is free and open to the public.
