Learn how professionals are using the HOPE framework in their work
The Fourth Annual HOPE Summit focused on the HOPE transformation, where organizations and practices are transformed through the HOPE framework. Prioritizing positive childhood experiences (PCEs) improves the well-being of children and families, and the HOPE framework can be practiced across sectors and in individual and large settings including communities and organizations.
We are excited to share the event recordings from this year’s Summit, now available for free, including the keynote addresses given by Leonard Burton, President of the Center for the Study of Social Policy (CSSP), and Aimee Zeitz-Gruber, MFT, Executive Director of Community Well-Being and Project Director of Partners in Prevention at the YMCA of San Diego County, and 18 different workshop presenters. From these recordings, you will learn about the presenters’ unique experiences and lessons in implementing the HOPE framework in their field and how you can begin practicing PCEs in your work. We are excited seeing how the HOPE framework creates meaningful, positive impact on children and families across the country and the world.
