The
Dropout Prevention Summit held on January 28, 2010 engaged
nearly 250 community stakeholders in a one-day work/action
exchange to build an awareness around the dropout crisis
and to secure a commitment to action from community leaders.
Participants identified
key issues, current barriers, available and needed resources,
and developed recommendations to strengthen current efforts
and initiate new strategic activity around measurable policy
and program support for young people. |
