| Brief Description of Presentation<\/th>\n\t\t\t\t\t | As adults working in prevention, youth leadership development, or related fields, how do we create the structure and environments for the kinds of youth-adult partnerships that amplify and celebrate youth voices and their capacity to create change? After a brief review of adolescent development and milestones, this workshop will explore ways to use principles of risk & protective factor theory, the theory of planned behavior, and restorative practices to provide meaningful ways for young people to contribute to important school & community initiatives. Participants will have the opportunity to walk through activities that help create safe and empowering spaces for youth, and share challenges & successes that they may have had in their work with youth - or from when they were youth themselves! We will also keep an eye toward equity and justice, looking at the ways that we can adapt and adjust to ensure all of the youth we work with have the tools and supports they need to reach the positive outcomes we hope to see.<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t |
