Applying a Positive Youth Development Framework to Increase Resiliency and Thrive

Applying a Positive Youth Development Framework to Increase Resiliency and Thrive

About This Webinar:

Webinar #2 of 4 in the Military Youth: Protecting and Promoting Resilience and Well-Being webinar series.

Disruptions like the pandemic create a new, different landscape for the development of youth. For some youth, it is the best of times; for others, it is the worst of times; for many, it is both. This webinar addresses two important questions for service providers:

1) How are military youth faring in this changing landscape?

2) How do we assess and rebuild programs with a youth development framework that builds resilience and reduces risk of military youth?

Presenters:

Dr. Kathrine Sullivan is an Assistant Professor at the Silver School of Social Work at New York University.

Daniel F. Perkins, Ph.D., is a Family and Youth Resiliency and Policy Professor at Penn State University.  He is also the Principal Scientist of the Clearinghouse for Military Family Readiness at Penn State, a university-wide applied research center.

Continuing education credit is available.
