Brief Program Description
The spoken word is the primary tool adults use to educate, motivate, and positively influence youth’s social and emotional health. In the challenging environments emerging from our pandemic experience, language strategies that provide helpers with the strongest impact on youth learning, behavior, and emotional state have never been more important. Strategies for building emotionally safe learning spaces, boosting motivation, shaping behavior, and promoting resilience will be shared. Participants will leave this learning experience with practices they can apply immediately to respond to all the needs and opportunities youth bring to our ever-changing programs and communities.
