About This Webinar:
The pandemic and other large-scale disruptions (i.e., natural disasters, economic downturns, political turmoil, health disparities, racial unrest) pose challenges to youth mental well-being. Now more than ever, young people need to build resilience and coping skills, maintain strong and supportive relationships, and practice self-care strategies to buffer against the negative effects of stress, loss, and trauma.
There is a growing consensus that social-emotional learning (SEL) provides an overarching framework to promote military-connected youth well-being and resilience. In this webinar, Dr. Dale Blyth and Dr. Kate Walker describe SEL and share practical strategies and resources to support youth thriving.
Webinar #3 of 4 in the Military Youth: Protecting and Promoting Resilience and Well-Being webinar series.
