Between April and October 2009, teams from Shared Youth Vision states will convene in the locations identified above to share successes, lessons and future plans. The Peer to Peer Regional Forum will also give state teams an opportunity to delve deeper into statewide action planning — refining and modifying existing plans — “roll up their sleeves” and use proven tools and strategic planning concepts to solidify long-term local investment approaches and create a strategic action plan to be used in their state work.

Each forum will be unique and specifically designed for the state teams that are attending. Agendas will be developed after facilitated cross-state conversations and prior to the P2P Forum to identify key areas of interest or discovery states would like to focus on.

States may register to attend any P2P meeting in the location of their choice.
