GPN Speaker Series with Dr. Ashley Cureton: Making a Change! Exploring Refugee Youth’s Civic Engagement in Out-of-School Programs to Cultivate Critical Consciousness

Join us for this month's GPN Speaker Series at the University of Pennsylvania for an exciting online event featuring Dr. Ashley Cureton from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Dr. Cureton will dive into her research focusing on refugee youth and the role of out-of-school time (OST) programs in cultivating opportunities for civic engagement and critical consciousness. She identifies the potential of OST programs to serve as an anchor for refugee youth, who lack familiarity with U.S. schools and communities.
