Organized by

Youth development veterans Eva Jo Meyers and Oscar Wolters-Duran created Spark Decks in 2015 after hearing repeatedly from hundreds of organizations they worked with across the country that finding time for professional development is a major challenge. They also saw staff struggle to balance increasing demands for academically rigorous programming, while still maintaining the fun, youth-centered focus that make enrichment, afterschool and summer programming so engaging. Their workshops highlight hands-on, bite-sized strategies (“sparks”) that are designed to make on-the-job learning fun and accessible.
