The Center for Advanced Studies in Child Welfare would like to announce
an upcoming workshop, Learning Dreams: A Strategy for Promoting
Educational Engagement for Families in the Child Welfare System.
Jerry Stein, Ph.D., senior fellow in the School of Social Work,
will present the Learning Dreams model for educational engagement as a
tool for child welfare workers to use to motivate youth and help them
make long term progress in their lives. It will also teach workers how
to use creative community building strategies to effectively support the
learning dreams of youth in the child welfare system.

Learning Dreams is built on the premise that actively supporting a culture of learning in
homes and communities creates a foundation for students’ educational
success.
Date: Wednesday, October 21
Time: 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM
Where: McNamara Alumni Center, 200 Oak Street, Minneapolis
