Ohio Whole Child Action Accelerator
The Ohio Department of Education’s Each Child, Our Future strategic plan outlines a whole child approach to education as incorporating foundational knowledge and skills, well-rounded content, leadership and reasoning, and social-emotional learning. Seek Common Ground facilitated the Ohio Whole Child Action Accelerator, supporting 15 community organizations and leaders in Akron, Cleveland, and Southeast Ohio seeking to implement innovative approaches to meet community needs using a whole child approach. The Ohio Whole Child Action Accelerator demonstrates the importance of engaging and supporting communities in co-creating sustainable change so that students, families, and communities can thrive.
Upcoming Community Events
The "Bridge Over Troubled Water" symposium represents a crucial step towards addressing youth violence through education, empowerment, and community collaboration. We believe that by investing in our youth, we can create a safer, more peaceful future for all.
This luncheon is not just an opportunity to enjoy a delicious meal; it's a chance for us to connect, learn, and grow together. Throughout the event, you'll have the chance to hear from dynamic speakers, engage in interactive workshops, and connect with fellow mentees and mentors, forging new friendships and collaborations. Leave feeling inspired, empowered, and ready to take on new challenges.
