SUMMARY:Adolescent Sexual & Reproductive Health PART 2
DESCRIPTION:Jill Farris continues the conversation around healthy sexuality for adolescents as an important part of their development.  For adolescents\, this is a time of major transition physically\, emotionally\, and socially. Caring adults play a key role in helping young people develop healthy routines\, behaviors\, and relationships that they can carry into their adult lives. During this workshop\, participants will review current adolescent health data trends\, learn basic information about puberty and anatomy\, and gain skills for answering sensitive questions regarding sexuality. Participants will also learn how experiences of trauma may impact adolescent sexual health\, and how their own values impact their ability to effectively support young people during this important time in their lives. \nPlease note that this training is for two days and will take place August 11 and August 18 from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM.

SUMMARY:LSS Webinar Series on Ages and Stages: Youth ages 9-13
DESCRIPTION:This workshop aims to help parents and caregivers feel more confident in understanding and discussing important elements of youth development (physical\, emotional and social). It begins by leading parents\, caregivers and caring adults through healthy developmental milestones for youth\, including discussions of behaviors that are considered developmentally typical but can often feel concerning or confusing as well as when to be concerned about developmentally atypical behaviors. Then\, participants discuss tips for starting developmentally appropriate conversations around these topics\, which can potentially feel difficult or awkward. Participants are also able to practice having some of these conversations so that they feel more prepared to have them in real life and are able to ask their questions to developmental experts on the SELF team. \n\nThis workshop focuses on developmental milestones for youth ages 9-13\n\n\nSELF Presenting\nSeeing and Exploring Life’s Future (SELF) provides education programming on topics including healthy development\, relationships and decision making. SELF is for all ages and stages of life to empower youth and those who support them with knowledge and tools to promote healthy development\, good decision-making and forming positive\, caring relationships.
