Health & Youth Development (Introduction) - July 14th, 2009

This training will provide an overview of HIFY’s philosophy and guiding principles on Youth Development. We will explore how youth development connects to health and introduce the concepts of adultism and being an adult ally to the young people we work with. This course will give detailed information on how to apply the 5 themes of youth development to everyday interactions with youth, and give participants the opportunity to examine their own values and assumptions, and work through current challenges in a supportive and engaging environment. No previous experience is required for this training. (5 CE credits)

Youth Development & Asset-based Thinking (Intermediate) - July 15th, 2009

This training builds on HIFY’s Introduction to Youth Development. Participants will explore the 41 developmental assets and how to use them in youth interventions. We will also examine the intersections of race and youth development, the importance of media literacy, and how to make it work at your agency. This training is especially designed for youth workers and allies that have been in the field, and would like a chance to reflect on Youth Development principles in greater detail and in specific relation to challenges they currently face. Our Introduction to Youth Development training is highly recommended. (5 CE credits)
