Description:

Join us for this professional development to learn how to build relationships with Afghan students and families through cultural immersion.

Many educators would love to visit the countries their students and families are from to learn about their cultural backgrounds, but this is not always possible. What is the next best thing? Cultural immersion right in your own community! 

During this one-day PD, attendees will conduct site visits around town to learn more about the key institutions in the lives of their Afghan students and families. Site visits will be led by Afghan individuals. The day will include time to debrief from the morning site visits as well as a multicultural lunch and a panel of Afghan community leaders.
