Youth Adult Equity Assessment Update

In addition to the State of High School Success report, Youth Forward MKE is continuing to develop and refine its Youth Adult Equity Assessment. The tool, which helps organizations determine where they land on the Youth Adult Equity Ladder, was piloted this winter, with 13 organizations taking part.

The data workgroup will now be utilizing feedback from participants to further refine the tool ahead of a wider rollout this year. Any organization whose work impacts youth in Milwaukee, Wisconsin or beyond will be encouraged to gather their team and complete the questionnaire.

In addition, in order to facilitate discussions on youth-adulty equity within local organizations, Youth Forward MKE ambassadors are developing a presentation on the topic, which will include the assessment.

“We hope to have this presentation ready to share by late spring or early summer,” said Ambassador Kaylee Marsh, “and we'd love the opportunity to present it to your organization!”
