Altruism and Volunteerism:
 Their Role in the Development of Your Child, Your Schools and Your Community

 New Trier High School, Northfield Campus, Room C234

Wednesday, November 15, 2006 from 12:45 – 2:30 pm. Map

 

How is volunteering important in a child's development? Can altruism be learned? What is service learning – and how are our local schools engaged in service learning? What are some local volunteer opportunities for your family to get involved in right now or for a summer or a post-high school gap year? These questions and more will be addressed by a prestigious and knowledgeable panel including: Associate Professor in Loyola’s College of Social Work, Dr. Alan Levy, PhD. LCSW; Executive Director of the Volunteer Center of New Trier Township, Barb Tubekis; leaders in experiential education, Janice Dreis and Larry Rehage; and a leader of New Trier’s Angola Project, Carolyn Muir. Great information for parents with teens and younger children!
