Veteran educator Dr. César A. Cruz and 3 youth panelists will present "Designing an Entire School by and for At-Promise Youth". This engaging panel will speak about the process of creating a grass-roots, community based school built on gang, youth, street and indigenous assets called Homies Empowerment based out of Oakland, California. In this workshop, participants will hear about out-of-the-box strategies to engage at-promise youth in community and school settings to channel the warrior, healer, hustler and scholar within.
