Upcoming Webinar!

September 4, 2025
10:00 AM - 11:00 AM CST

In this webinar, we will explore the benefits of youth and adult partnerships that enable communities to foster proactive prevention strategies led by youth. Youth and adult partnerships create a system of both mentorship and positive peer support that lead to healthy and long-lasting cycles of effective and evaluated prevention efforts at the local level. We will explore the use of SAMHSA’s Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) and how it can be used to develop a strong infrastructure for school or community-based health approaches. We’ll hear success stories from prevention programs in utilizing prevention strategies that acknowledge how youth are part of the solution. This presentation is hands-on and will leave you with tangible resources for bringing these tools to your own programs and communities.
