Voices of Resilience Youth Panel (Live from the 2023 EMBRACE Equity Symposium)

Youth Voice Amplified

We have a special gift for our listeners this holiday season! 🎁🎉🎙️ In September 2023, we had the honor of moderating the Voices of Resilience student panel at the 2023 EMBRACE Equity Symposium, where educators from across California converged to champion equity and inclusion in schools.
In this episode, you'll hear the uplifting conversation we led with an exceptional group of youth who've conquered adversities like homelessness, foster care, and the juvenile justice system. But this wasn’t just about their stories—it's a discussion into the influential force of student voice. These resilient students share insights into how student voices can shape equitable schools and how educators and advocates can champion change from the perspective of our youth!
Get ready to be inspired and enlightened as we bring you the raw, unfiltered audio from this enlightening panel directly from the EMBRACE Equity Symposium. This isn't just a panel discussion; it's an opportunity for you, our listeners, to gain deep insights, learn from real experiences, and be inspired by these remarkable young changemakers!
Happy Holidays from Youth Voice Amplified!
