One of the most significant challenges for those supporting system involved youth these days is to effectively engage youth and families and help them build constructive, transformational behaviors that are sustainable and lead to healthy community engagement and improved outcomes for system involved youth. We will explore how to amplify our capacity to support child social and emotional development and wellbeing, strengthen resilience towards healing from traumatic events that can magnified by the abuse of substances by utilizing the practices illustrated in Michael Singer’s books, “The Untethered Soul” and “Living from a Place of Surrender.”

Practicing and sharing the methods outlined by this author will empower our own mindfulness practices and allow us to deepen our effectiveness with system-involved youth and their families to support them towards healthier lifestyles.
