Networking Roundtables
New this year! Conference attendees who are not making
visits to the Hill will be provided an opportunity to talk with
peers, sharing experiences around specific topics or areas of
interest. Six rooms are available for these networking roundtables.
A member agency representative and a CWLA staff
member will cofacilitate each discussion. Notes will be taken
at each roundtable, which will be compiled and distributed
so the richness of the dialogue is captured and shared. Any
identified areas of need will guide the League's future work.
We want this to be a meaningful experience for you,
so you will help chose the six topics. When you fill out
your registration form, pick six of the eight topics suggested
below that you think are most relevant, and the top
six overall will appear in the final brochure you will receive
at the conference. The suggested topics are:
- Practice issues for specific populations (such as older
adolescents and innovative approaches for fostering
their move to independence and working with the
Latino population)
- Evidence-based treatment modalities (challenges
of implementing them and how to make them work,
e.g., multi-dimensional treatment foster care)
- Privatization (what agencies are doing and how they
are making it work)
- Successful funding to sustain evidence-based
practices and programs beyond their start-up
- Challenges of working with children and youth
involved with the juvenile justice and child
welfare systems
- Grant writing
