NCE Conference 2024

Education Strategy Group spent two years working with ten communities across the U.S. to build student relationships and networks within college and career pathways. The learning from this work led to the development of Cultivating Connections, a framework for helping schools and communities prioritize social capital in their work to prepare students for their future. In this session, we will share the different approaches communities took to more intentionally helping students recognize, value, and build their connections and networks, then present our tools for helping communities make social capital a bigger priority.
