While aspects of positive youth development can be found in most human services, including working on healthy supportive relationships and providing opportunities for skill building, integrating other aspects may be more challenging. With system-involved youth who may appear resistant to your approach and your program’s services, what are ways to stay strength-based and uplift assets in way that gives them decision making within the helping process, the organization and the community?

In this interactive and engaging workshop, we will examine what makes up positive youth development, leadership and empowerment and share how providers and program leaders can successfully integrate these concepts and methodologies, whether your primary focus be mental health, case management or some other related function.
