SUMMARY:Evaluating Nature-Based Youth Development Programs with Hello Insight
DESCRIPTION:In this interactive webinar\, Cynthia Weaver\, Senior Associate with The Annie E. Casey Foundation\, will share the importance of evaluation as a tool to improve outcomes and communicate impact as a program and a sector. Hello Insight co-founder and COO Sally Munemitsu will preview exciting new data showing how nature positively enhances youth development outcomes. Courtney Aber\, National YMCA BOLD & GOLD Director\, will share her experience with piloting the evaluation tool last summer and Monica Lopez Magee\, C&NN’s Senior VP of Cities & Community Engagement\, will discuss how this aligns with research on the benefits of combining nature and  youth development. You’ll be able to ask questions to determine if this tool is right for you to get real-time feedback on your program and better tell your impact story. \nFREE. Everyone is welcome.

SUMMARY:CCCN Fall Learning Series: Measuring Systems Change for Children's Equitable Access to Nature [RESCHEDULED]
DESCRIPTION:If you registered for the original webinar on Nov. 3\, you do not need to register again. Please check your email as we sent out an email with the login link and information. Email info@childrenandnature.org for any questions. \n\nJoin us to learn how to measure progress in changing the conditions that keep cities from providing equitable access to nature for children. \nThis third and final session in the three-part series continues to explore the ways cities and community leaders can change long-standing conditions of inequity to achieve more equitable access to nature for all children. Building on content from the first two sessions\, participants will increase fluency and understanding of the systems change framework. They will also explore how to measure progress towards more equitable access to nature. The session will introduce CCCN measurement tools that participants can use to keep track of progress and next steps towards change. \nThe session will be co-facilitated by Cities Connecting Children to Nature (CCCN)\, a national partnership of NLC and C&NN\, Success Measures\, a CCCN partner focused on measurement\, and the National Recreation and Parks Association\, a partner of this learning series. Panelists will include representatives from CCCN cities sharing experiences utilizing the measurement tools. \nObjectives:  \n\nBuild fluency and grasp of 6 conditions of systems change [continued]\nIdentify methods for measuring progress in changing systems conditions that lead to increasing equitable access to nature \nExplore tools for measuring and implementing best practices that enhances children’s equitable access to nature \n\nAbout the series: \nWe know that nature makes kids healthier\, happier and smarter. Unfortunately\, not all kids have the same access to nature and green spaces. Longstanding conditions\, such as policies\, power dynamics\, resource allocations and systemic racism create unequal access to nature’s benefits\, particularly for kids of color and from low-income communities. Achieving real and lasting change requires a community-based approach to dismantling systems of inequity\, or in other words\, a systems change approach.  \nThis series will dive into how cities and their local partners can use a systems change approach to connect children to nature more equitably. The 3-part series includes two informative webinars that serve as a foundation for understanding a systems change framework followed by an interactive workshop for participants to apply the insight gained. \nIf you did not register for the original webinar and would like to register\, please email info@childrenandnature.org. \n  \nPresented by: \n       \nIn partnership with:
