We want to send a huge appreciation to Nike for hosting the Nike Coach Summit! Youth Development Coach, KP and youth leader Bri had an amazing time networking, learning, and being in community with coaches across the region. They attended a verity of workshops on inclusive, healing-centered coaching techniques, with a focus on ensuring all kids belong. We can’t wait to implement some of these learnings in our upcoming program sessions!
