Funding Models: Lunch & Learn Series
District and EPP leaders who are current partners were invited to join the TN GYO Center to better understand available funding strategies in preparation for the fall of 2024. The goals for this series were to expose LEA and EPP partners to newly available resources and to provide time and space for questions and discussion. Strong partners design solutions together, and this series is meant to orient us all toward designing solutions, overcoming challenges, and strengthening partnerships.
