WELCOME
CGLR invites you to join us for upcoming “Learning Tuesdays” webinars and to explore the growing archive of recordings and information generated to date. These opportunities feature the best science, ideas and programs shared by an expert faculty delivering insights gleaned from research, practice and lived experience.
LEARNING & ENGAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
GLR Learning Tuesdays webinars occur weekly, with sessions in the Crucible of Practice, Funder-to-Funder and Peer Exchange series occurring monthly and Special Webinars occurring occasionally. What’s Working XChange and Communities of Practice promote peer learning among local GLR coalitions.
