Thank you Isa, Karen, Eshauna, and Aimee for your thoughtful and informed presentations. Question: Can the approaches you shared be scaled through policy and public funding or are they dependent on local talent and private philanthropic support?

Joseph | Dallas Ideas to get students over fear and feelings of not measuring up in order to encourage them to apply for internships

Hi everyone. Thank you for this webinar! Eshauna, I am curious, how do you all pitch the idea to new organizations and research/vet the organization to best align with UA?

This is Linda from Urban Initiatives. Thank you so much for this presentation! Could you all talk more about the developmental aspects of social capital? Earlier it was noted that soft skills+networks = social capital. Are there particular soft skills most crucial to building social capital, and at what stage of youth development do these typically become most important?

Laura Stateler, The Brookings Institution: Organizations like Urban Alliance have the capacity to build out QUALITY work-based learning experiences. Could you speak to efforts, that you know of, that states are doing to build out quality work-based learning experiences. How can internship experiences be scaled while keeping quality on the state level?

Thank you for your comments/questions. I will share them with the speakers and we will respond in writing.

We will also share a copy of the webinar and presentation slides. If you did not register, please post your email here. Thank you.

I am staying on for a few minutes to see if there are additional questions/comments that come in.
