A discussion of issues that our youth struggle with, and healthy ways to support them through difficulty. This workshop focuses on ways that parents, caregivers, and/or support networks can have open communication with youth who may be at risk. With the recent television depictions of teenage suicide and self-harm, parents and support networks would benefit from gaining insight on how to approach their struggling teenager. Participants will begin to identify the warning signs of at risk youth, learn ways to facilitate open communication, and understand strategies to maintain healthy and safe boundaries. Participants will walk away with a better understanding of how to help their teen transition successfully into adulthood.

The building blocks for healthy childhood development. (target audience - parents, teachers, anyone involved in a child's life) - This workshop looks into essential building blocks for a child's healthy development, from mentoring to encouraging children to be more involved in healthy activities. The audience will examine 40 essential building blocks to healthy child development, and understand the vastly different outcomes that can occur when children have over 30 assets in their life versus having less than 15. Participants will be encouraged to take an inventory of the building blocks their children currently have, and will walk away with new strategies to become asset builders in their children's lives.
