Join us on June 4, 2026, for an inspiring conversation with Ellen Galinsky, President of the Families and Work Institute and nationally recognized author and researcher. From her groundbreaking work in early childhood education to her influential writing on adolescence, Ellen has shaped how we understand children’s development across the years. Her bestselling books, including Mind in the Making and The Breakthrough Years, have become must-reads for educators and parents alike, offering a clear, research-based voice on executive functioning and the realities of the tween and teen years.

As we come together, we’ll explore questions such as: What misconceptions do we hold about children, tweens, and teenagers? Where might we be missing the mark as educators and parents? What are the most important lessons Ellen has learned through her work with families, policymakers, and the media—and how can we apply them in our own contexts?

Join us on June 4, 2026, for Reflect for Insight, Reset for Action! Featuring Ellen Galinsky, as we consider what needs to shift in our thinking and practice—and how a deeper understanding of executive function and adolescence can help us better support children, families, and ourselves.

As we reflect for insight and reset for action, we’ll explore questions like: How can we use these powerful interactions to extend learning for ourselves and for children? What intentional conversations do we need to have about our practice and our future? How can we come together to create the future we want—for children, for our teams, and for ourselves?
