This keynote is a customized overview of resources and relationship for instructional and non-instructional school staff, agency personnel, practitioners, and professionals from varied backgrounds. It has been adapted to a virtual format based on the book A Framework for Understanding Poverty by Ruby K. Payne, Ph.D. Upon completion of the training, you will be educated and empowered to activate as a champion for students! We believe that every person within a school division or supportive agency is a champion and has an impact on the daily lives of our children. The strategies shared are comprehensive, based on research, and real-life application. Come and be equipped with a lens through which to see your opportunities to be a champion in your role within your school division by enhancing your understanding of unique strengths and needs of the children and families you serve. Please note this session will NOT be recorded.
