Positive Youth Development across the Federal Government: A Thought Leader Conversation with Cheri Hoffman

Wednesday, April 1/2:00-3:00 PM EDT

At least 21 federal agencies support programs and services focused on youth. What does it take to make sure that all of these policies and programs add up to positive, healthy outcomes for young people?

For over a decade, the Federal Interagency Working Group on Youth Programs has brought together representatives from these federal agencies to promote achievement of positive results for at-risk youth through coordination and collaboration, evidence-based and innovative strategies, and youth engagement and partnerships.

In this thought leader session, Karen Pittman sits down with Cheri Hoffman, who chairs the working group and also directs the Division of Children and Youth Policy for the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation at the Department of Health and Human Services. This session explores how the working group helps federal agencies approach positive youth development and emerging ways that the working group is tackling its mission.
