It’s not what you know, it’s who you know. But who do teenagers know? Networks matter. Teens need networks to land internships and other learning opportunities to explore their passions, build resumes, and find future employment opportunities. But not all networks are equal, and the achievement gap continues to grow. Learn how to leverage the social capital of your school to help build equitable networks and wrangle opportunity.
