Adolescent and Youth Development SIG Scholar Retreat (Day 3 of 3)

Session Type: Invited Speaker Session

Abstract

The AYD SIG Scholar Retreat is a mentorship program that takes place at the AERA Annual Meeting. The Scholars are keenly invested in adolescent and youth development research topics and are participating in community-based partnerships with child and youth serving organizations. They also share a desire to engage in intellectually stimulating conversations about the publishing process, sharpening and focusing a research agenda, developing research questions, balancing work and life, and achieving tenure. Each year, a new cohort of Scholars is selected through an application process to participate in a gathering at the annual meeting of current and alumnus Scholars and faculty of the AYD SIG, AERA, and the professional community devoted to adolescent study.
