Teen Programming: A Mover & Shaker's Recipe for Impact and Success (WebJunction webinar)

This webinar is offered by WebJunction. Click here for more information and to register.

A webinar, hosted in collaboration with Library Journal, presented by 2016 Mover & Shaker, Courtney Saldana, on teen programming, from assessment to implementation.

When "Change Agent" Courtney Saldana was featured as a 2016 Library Journal Mover & Shaker, we were treated to a sampling of her outstanding work with teens, and knew that all libraries could benefit from hearing more. Learn about her teen programming basics along with practical and actionable steps for doing a teen needs assessment, creating a teen space and hosting a teen book fest. Courtney will also introduce us to Skills for Teen Parenting (STeP), a program connecting teens with what they need to succeed as adults and parents: how to interview successfully, dress professionally, deal with conflict and time management, care for their child, postpone or prevent a second pregnancy, and more. Expanding from local success to state-wide implementation, the STeP program embodies a wonderful example of the replicable innovation brought to the field by Movers & Shakers.

This webinar is part of a series highlighting the work of recent LJ Movers & Shakers and is hosted in collaboration with Library Journal.

Presented by: Courtney Saldana, Youth Services Supervising Librarian, Ontario City Library (CA)
