The Feeling Factor: Designing for Belonging, Connection, and Growth

May 20, 2026 | 3:00–4:00 PM ET

Youth experience programs on an emotional level, and that experience shows up in how they act, connect, and engage. In this interactive session, we’ll take a fresh look at behavior as something to understand rather than something to fix. Together, we’ll explore the role of relationships, adult presence, and intentional design in shaping the environment around youth. You’ll leave with practical strategies to approach behavior with curiosity, strengthen connections, and create spaces where both youth and adults can thrive. Presented by Amy Brady, Founder of The Flourish Lab.
