2017 National MTSS Professional Learning Institute

Years of data show that many students exit the US educational system unprepared for college and career.  In 2014, the White House launched “My Brother’s Keeper” (MBK), calling for the close of opportunity gaps faced by boys and young men of color.  Much work has been done, but there is still more to do.  This presentation will take a three pronged approach for creating high quality educational programs for boys and young men of color.  The presenter will 1) Establish theoretical base for increasing outcomes for students in need; 2) Share interventions currently being employed across California and the United States, and 3) Explore “outside-of-the-box” strategies.
