Join us on September 12, 2024, from 12:30 – 2:30 PM for an engaging discussion hosted by the UCLA Center for the Developing Adolescent. This scientist-led session will explore the intersection of social systems and their impact on adolescence. We will focus on how the philanthropic sector can support young people by introducing a free funder tool designed to integrate developmental principles into your grant strategy and decision-making.
Andrew Fuligni, a leading developmental researcher and Co-Executive Director at the Center, will demonstrate the tool and explain its application. Discover how aligning your philanthropic efforts with key developmental goals for adolescence can drive meaningful change and improve outcomes for youth and young adults.
Lunch will be served.
