Out-of-school-time (OST) programs benefit from community support, and engaging with community partners is a critical part of any program's funding sustainability plan. Knowing what information to share and how to engage community partners in a meaningful way can be challenging.
In this webinar, participants will walk away understanding the hallmarks of positive community partner engagement and how that engagement can help grow OST programs, including:
- Program Leadership
Strong leadership starts with your program and can have a lasting impact on relationships with community partners. - Types of Community Partners
Thoughtful community partners can provide more than financial contributions to OST programs. - Partner Reporting
Proactive communication with community partners helps reinforce their value to the OST program and illustrates how their contribution increases the OST program's value to the community. - Social Media
Positive engagement with community partners on social media illustrates the OST program's benefit to and impact on the community.
Webinar participants will also receive a complimentary social media planner template for OST programs!
