Description

The Social Connections with HOPE learning series offers an opportunity to come together as a community that cares for and supports children and youth in achieving optimal social health.  We will showcase how local professionals and community leaders utilize the HOPE (Healthy Outcomes from Positive Experiences) framework as a strength-based approach to working with children and young people. We will highlight best practices in supporting social connectedness among children and youth in schools and community. During the third meeting of the learning series we will focus on services and programs from our communities that strengthen the supports to social health in children and youth on organizational and community level.
