The First 100 Days: How State and Local Leaders are Responding

Grantmakers for Thriving Youth

Virtual

In its first 100 days, the current Administration has issued multiple Executive Orders, implemented significant reductions of federal agency staff, and eliminated funding for local, state and federal programs supporting youth.

Join Grantmakers for Thriving Youth and the National Collaborative for Transformative Youth Policy as we engage state and local leaders in a discussion on how the youth they serve have been impacted, what they are doing in response, and what ideas they have for all of us to support youth to thrive in these uncertain times.

This program is free and open to all. Registration required.

- Nia West-Bey, Executive Director. National Collaborative for Transformative Youth Policy

- Jessica Makin, DHHS Administrator, Office of Substance Use and Mental Health, Utah
- Sunae Villavaso, Director, Mayor's Office of Workforce Development, New Orleans, Louisiana
