Description

Learn to change the way that you show up in the lives of youth people, so that they in turn show up differently for you! Youth are moving from a period of childhood in which they have things done for and to them, to a period of incrementally becoming more independent and self-reliant. The physical, social and psychological changes young people undergo can not only impact their behavior and how they interact with the world, but can also impact how the adults around them respond to this transformation. During this time of significant transition and increasing independence for youth, resources and systems for youth must be constructed in a developmentally appropriate approach. This workshop will dive into adolescent brain development and give you tangible ways to provide opportunities, skills, and recognition for young people.
