Thursday, September 9: Positive Youth Development

One evidence-based approach to reduce youth violence is positive youth development. This approach emphasizes fully preparing young people to succeed and contribute now and as adults, both building and sustaining youth’s ability to make choices that will positively impact their future—resulting in a reduction of risky or violent behavior. This workshop will provide concrete strategies and specific tools for creating cultures that promote positive youth development, whether in classrooms, after-school settings, or youth programs.

Tuesday, September 21: Teen Dating Violence

This workshop provides information and resources in the area of healthy relationships and teen dating violence to compliment youth-oriented programming. Participants will learn to recognize teen dating violence and its underlying dynamics; address the unique risk and protective factors of relationship violence in adolescence; and integrate evidence-based, effective tools and hands-on activities into their programming.
