EVENT: The Virtues of Youth Sports: A Conversation with Frederick M. Hess and Timothy Shriver

The past few years have been a time of grave concern about the social, mental, and academic well-being of American youth. While much of the response has emphasized therapeutic approaches or the need to curtail digital overload, far less attention has been devoted to the benefits of youth sports. Join AEI’s Frederick M. Hess and Timothy Shriver of the Special Olympics International Board of Directors as they discuss the virtues of youth sports and how schools and communities can better expand participation and foster crucial skills such as resilience, teamwork, self-discipline, and leadership in youth.
