In early May, researchers and Community Action Project of Tulsa County (CAPTC) staff hosted a visit and meeting with representatives of the Aspen Institute’s Ascend Family Economic Security Program and the George Kaiser Family Foundation to increase awareness and understanding among stakeholders of the two-generation pilot program CareerAdvance®. The two-day visit held on May 3 – 4 included a briefing of the two-generation approach, and lessons learned from both the program and family’s perspective. Meeting participants also conducted a site visit of CareerAdvance® ‘s training centers and met with participants of the program.
The Aspen Institute also posted a follow-up and meeting summary on their website, accessible at this link: Ascend visits Tulsa, an innovation space for Ascend Fellows
