The NYU Institute of Human Development and Social Change invites you to join Our Stories, Our Solutions: A Summit on Transformative Solutions for Economic Equity in New York City. The summit will take place on October 17th and 18th with an optional welcome dinner held on October 16th.

This Summit has been carefully planned alongside a design team made up of community leaders, advocates, parents, and peers from across the United States. Since its inception, the project has prioritized the integration of community voices and perspectives in all aspects of the planning process.

During the Summit, participants will engage in direct dialogue and collective reflection about their experiences, ideas, and work in the areas of economic justice, inclusion, and child and family well-being. By sharing in each other’s successes, challenges and goals, we seek to build relationships and seed transformative pathways for action that communities can implement to advance economic inclusion and the health and well-being of children and families. 

Your insights are important to us! You are invited to be one of 40 individuals from communities across the country to be an active voice in this two-day event. You will be joining an audience of peers, parents, community leaders, practitioners, advocates, and researchers who are committed to improving the lives of children and families in the United States. Our request is simple: We invite you to come with an open mind, ready to share innovative ideas and build relationships. 

Will you join us? Please RSVP here. For more information about travel and accommodations, visit the Summit page.
