Regional Support for Service-Learning

There are two types of assistance available in every region of California:

Regional Service-Learning Leads
provide leadership and collaborate with others to build capacity for service-learning and youth service in their regions. Leads convene regional events; engage K-12 schools, districts, community partners and individual practitioners in planning and coordination efforts; and represent their regions at the state level. Regional Leads also promote and support cross-service connections between K-Higher Education practitioners and other national and community service activities in each region. Organizations and individuals are encouraged to contact regional service-learning leads to learn more about what is happening in the region and get involved in regional activities.

Certified Service-Learning Trainers

  • Lead workshops and institutes in your school/district/region to expand knowledge of high quality service-learning and to provide practical guidance for service-learning projects.
  • Serve as advisors to your local or regional program.

  • Work with the Regional Lead and Technical Assistance Coordinator to create a collegial system of Certified Trainers, Model Practitioners, and other leaders to develop a sustainable support network for service-learning in your district/region.
  • Work with you and your Regional Lead to design and develop a comprehensive regional professional development plan.
