Facilitators play key roles in creating a welcoming and creative learning environments for youth and families to create and learn together. In these comics, we wanted to recognize the practices, questions, and growth that facilitators experience as they support children and families. In addition, we hope these comics can be a tool for other facilitators and facilitation teams to reflect on their own experiences and practices.

In “Facilitating Facilitators” you’ll find:

  • Three stories, each featuring a different facilitator and a key experience they identified as important in their development.

  • Questions to prompt reflection about their and your facilitation practices.

  • A set of “facilitating fundamentals” to consider as part of facilitating creative and equitable learning experiences.
