CalSAC, ExpandLA, and Partnership for Children & Youth are excited to announce the return of It Takes All of Us: Expanded Learning Workforce Summit on July 17-18, 2025 in San Diego, CA!

Last December, 200 stakeholders came together to imagine and celebrate the future of the expanded learning workforce. We invite you to join us again in 2025 to continue advancing the movement toward quality jobs for youth-serving professionals - it takes all of us!

With an annual $4B investment, and a new appreciation for the key role expanded learning programs play in the lives and education of young people, now is the time to drastically uplift the profession. We aim to create an educational system where expanded learning practitioners are valued for the important work they do and have access to high-quality jobs that support the whole person, fostering long-term retention for the stability of programs and enrichment of young people. It takes all of us!

Registration coming early 2025!


It Takes All of Us: Expanded Learning Workforce Summit

New investments make expanded learning possible for children and families at scale, but one clear barrier to fulfilling that promise is recruiting, supporting, and ensuring quality jobs for an enormous new expanded learning workforce. Together, we must build and uplift innovative strategies that promote livable wages, benefits, full-time positions, and pathways into family-sustaining careers for the expanded learning workforce.
It takes all of us!
