Intermediary Leadership and Designing for Equity
Description:
This talk will focus on the critical role intermediaries play in developing equitable college and career pathways. We will highlight strategies that improve systems and outcomes for youth of color and youth experiencing poverty. We will also discuss how intermediaries can motivate systems-level leaders to identify and dismantle inequitable barriers, and the challenges we collectively face to embed equitable values, policies, and practices at the heart, and not just a part, of intermediary work.
