FW: 3/4 Leadership Fireside with CCER, Champion for Educational Equity

How can we work together to make education accessible for all students, regardless of race or income? The Community Center for Education Results (CCER) is a champion of educational equity dedicated to improving student achievement. They galvanize a community-wide effort aiming to double the number of students in South King County and South Seattle who are on track to graduate from college or earn a career credential by 2020. Join a team of three leaders from CCER to discuss closing the opportunity and achievement gaps, crucial leadership and coalition building skills, and more.

March 4 | 4:30-5:30 p.m. | HUB 145

The Husky Leadership Initiative Leadership Firesides offer ongoing opportunities for students to engage in meaningful dialogue with a diverse range of civic, corporate, and campus leaders in an informal setting.  These leaders share their personal journeys and perspectives on leadership and become momentary mentors for students attending the event.  The Firesides are a way for students to learn more about and reflect on leadership and build their leadership competence and confidence.

Starbucks is dedicated to the development of student leaders and proud to be a presenting sponsor of the Leadership Firesides.
