About

Youth development is essential to the well-being and success of young people, providing them with the relationships, environments, and opportunities they need to thrive. Out-of-school time (OST) programs are a powerful part of this ecosystem — serving as a bridge between school, home, and community. These programs offer safe, supportive spaces for children and youth to grow socially, emotionally, and academically.

To help guide the next era of youth development, the National Academies recently released The Future of Youth Development: Building Systems and Strengthening Programs — a consensus report that charts the growth, complexity, and promise of the field, while offering concrete recommendations to expand access and impact.

Now, it’s time to move from vision to action.

The National Academies’ Board on Children, Youth, and Families and the Societal Experts Action Network will co-host an implementation summit designed to turn insights into strategies. This action-oriented gathering will spotlight the roles of state and local leaders, intermediaries, and key youth development actors. Through expert panels, state and local success stories, and collaborative tabletop discussions, participants will explore how to build stronger systems, scale what works, and ensure that all young people have access to high-quality OST opportunities.

This summit will convene in the Great Hall.

Materials

About

Graduate students, post-docs, and early-career faculty engaged in social-environmental research face an unprecedented research landscape. Decreased federal research funding will constrain their ability to continue their personal research programs, from dissertations to faculty research plans. Low-cost primary data collection, re-analysis of secondary data, creative use of available datasets, meta-analysis of existing studies, and localized field work can all be potential solutions. The Societal Experts Action Network (SEAN), the Board on Environmental Change and Society (BECS), and the Committee on National Statistics (CNSTAT) of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine will host a webinar that showcases practical, low-cost methods to sustain meaningful environmental and societal research during times of limited financial support. The webinar is aimed at supporting graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and early-career faculty in environmental, social science, and associated disciplines.

Addressing the Impact of School Active Shooter Drills on Health and Wellbeing: Vision to Action Summit

August 25, 2025

10:00 AM - 4:00 PM (ET)

Past

About

Active shooter drills have become a common practice in U.S. Schools—95% of public K–12 schools conduct them, and many states mandate their use. However, there is little consistency in how drills are implemented or in how schools communicate about them. Practices vary widely, often without clear guidance on how to minimize the potential harms to the mental, emotional, and behavioral health of students and staff. The National Academies’ forthcoming consensus report, School Active Shooter Drills: Mitigating Risks to Mental, Emotional, and Behavioral Health, examines how school active shooter drills and broader school security measures affect school climate and individual wellbeing, and offers recommendations to help schools reduce potential harms while supporting safety.

The National Academies’ Board on Children, Youth, and Families and Societal Experts Action Network will co-host a summit to further explore the findings and recommendations of this consensus report. This summit will bring together state and local decision-makers, intermediaries, and experts in school safety and mental health to explore effective strategies for supporting the mental, emotional, and behavioral health needs of students and staff. Through expert panels and collaborative tabletop discussions, participants will examine how schools can implement practices that promote prevention, preparedness, and overall wellbeing—fostering learning environments where students and staff feel safe, capable, and supported.

This summit takes place in lecture room 100.
