Message from the Board

Hello Community Partners,

Our September Community Support Network meeting is tomorrow, September 1st, 2021 from 3:30pm to 5pm. We’ll receive a presentation from Cori Ove from Bright Futures for Youth on Youth and Families Thrive. Please see below for more information. Click here for the agenda and zoom information.

Cori Ove, of Bright Futures for Youth, will present a broad overview of Families Thrive, which integrates CSSP’s (Center for the Study of Social Policy) Strengthening Families and Youth Thrive into a single, comprehensive training that mixes brain science and developmental research with best practice. Families Thrive is a way to help those who work with youth and families build stronger, more resilient youth, parents, caregivers, and communities.  Cori is a certified Families Thrive trainer.

If you have a training opportunity that promotes resilient communities, please reach out to Alyssa Burke with the details (csnncorg@gmail.com).
