Members of the Chamber's Center for Education Excellence & Talent Development and Center for Innovation & Technology traveled to Philadelphia this week to attend the Aspen Institute Opportunity Youth Forum. The annual spring convening brings together leaders from backbone opportunity youth serving organizations and their collaborative partners, including youth leaders, institutions of higher education, community-based organizations, foundations, the private sector and government. Several notable speakers led conversations around criminal justice reform, innovative workforce solutions for connecting opportunity youth to careers and healing-centered solutions to career pathways. This convening and partnership with the Aspen Institute will help guide the Chamber's efforts in Los Angeles to better serve opportunity youth.
