SPEAKERS
Vacuums Suck ­ If it takes a village to raise a child, why are we raising today’s children in vacuums? By Kathy Lynn, BA. CCFE Children are our future, and we need kids who are ready to take over the reins of power. They need to be creative, good problem‐solvers in a quickly changing world, able to assess reasonable risk‐taking ventures and have a good sense of their strengths and weaknesses. Using stories and example Kathy will talk about how we all need to be accountable to our kids and welcome them as part of their and our community. Creating an Environment of….. By Dave Kissinger As individuals interact with others in their “village”, various environments are created. The cumulative efforts of individuals result in the environment of the community. The presentation will deal with two basic questions… 1. WHAT environment does the village choose to pursue? 2. HOW can each individual contribute to the environment the village embraces? Using a lifetime of personal and professional experience Dave will help you find ways you can contribute to creating the environment you desire in your village. A Framework for the 40 Developmental Assets By Dean Munchinsky and Des Snyman All kinds of people are asset builders: parents, nonparents, youth, neighbors, teachers, bus drivers, elder, wealthy, poor, small town residents, farm families…we can all build assets every day, everywhere, as many times as you want. Dean and Des will provide ideas to raise an age friendly community that encourages all individuals to make a difference, no matter who they are or what their lives are like. Kathy Lynn, BA.
