Title: Using Asset-Based Language & Centering Stakeholders

In this session, we’ll explore the fundamentals of asset-based framing and will work through tangible examples to identify and eliminate deficit-based language. When our messaging focuses solely on the problem, we miss out on the opportunity to begin to flip the script and tap into the agency and power of our stakeholders.
