Local peer learning networks are an effective way for practitioners and other creative youth development stakeholders
to connect, learn, support each other, and collectively advance CYD. At their best, these networks consist of youth and adults working and making decisions alongside each other with an
equitable leadership relationship.
Proposals will be accepted from both emerging networks (those that are in the beginning process) and sustaining networks (those that are established and active). This is a project of the Creative Youth Development National Partnership, administered by the National
Guild for Community Arts Education.
