By taking a comprehensive and integrated approach, community schools have opportunities to address all of children's developmental needs--cognitive, social, emotional, physical, and moral. This workshop will use a risk-and-opportunity framework to help participants consider how their community school can respond to the strengths and needs of the "whole child."
Presenters:
Myrna Torres, Deputy Director of Community Schools, Washington Heights, Children's Aid
