Why are families important to cities? What can we learn from other cities about the design and development of urban schools, active spaces, housing, and safety? What are the local opportunities Seattle designers, developers, business and policy-makers can take advantage of right now--and in the future--to make Seattle a welcoming urban environment for families? This day-long conference will highlight the challenges of attracting and retaining intergenerational families in urban neighborhoods. Hear from local, regional and national experts, and learn what other cities in North America are doing to create great urban environments for families. Each presentation includes inspiring national examples, as well as a thoughtful examination of our special Seattle opportunities and challenges.
