IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ THIS MESSAGE BEFORE YOU BEGIN: How to Use Sched: Workshop sessions are first-come, first-served. The majority of our sessions will range from 20-30 people. This online schedule is to help you think in advance about which sessions you are most interested in. You may have used Sched via a personal log-in for past Conferences. Since this is an in-person Conference and sessions are first-come, first-served, there is no log-in for attendees. We will also offer a printed program for all attendees at the Conference, which will include session titles and locations.
Join School’s Out Washington for a day of learning, collaboration, and growth tailored to the strengths and needs of youth providers based in the Central and Eastern Washington region. Engage with experienced trainers from the field, build your skill toolkit, and explore applicable strategies to bring back to your program. Designed for youth providers at all experience levels, this professional development symposium is a unique opportunity for providers in the Central and Eastern Washington regions to connect and develop regionally relevant solutions for improving positive outcomes for children and youth.

What if writing became the activity kids asked for instead of avoided? Write Brain Books turns blank pages into creativity, teamwork, laughter, and accomplishment. Experience easy-to-use strategies that help youth overcome “I don’t know what to write,” unlock their imagination, and create stories they’re proud to share. Come discover how writing can move from frustration to excitement—and see how publishing-worthy ideas can start with a single picture and a little inspiration! Participants will leave with practical tools and activities that can transform writing experiences in their own programs and help young people discover pride, confidence, and joy in their writing.
