In this session we will take a look at the ACE Study (adverse childhood experiences), the effects of adverse experiences, and how we can build resiliency in individuals with high ACE scores. Relationships are vital resources in young people's development, and assets are built primarily though positive, healthy relationships. The Search Institute released a framework of the 40 Developmental Assets, which identifies a set of skills, experiences, relationships, and behaviors that enable young people to develop into successful and contributing adults. Data collected from Search Institute surveys of more than 4 million children and youth from all backgrounds and situations has consistently demonstrated that the more Developmental Assets young people acquire, the better their chances of succeeding in school and becoming happy, healthy, and contributing members of their communities and society.

During the current pandemic, most of us have been physically separated for several weeks due to social distancing. This has created the need for youth workers and caregivers to find new & creative ways to build assets with our youth. Join us as we discover ways to promote resiliency, optimism & relational connections in young people.

About the Lecture: Emotional Intelligence has gained momentum as an awareness movement and understanding EI assists in understanding the role that resilience plays in overall well-being. The path to resilience begins with relationship. Positive relationship development includes accountability and realization beyond behaviors that create intrinsic resilience. Participants will learn to implement best practices to encourage feelings of youth connectedness to support systems. They will also explore GRIT and the growth mindset as a tool for increasing well-being and develop a plan to implement resources that can support their work to develop youth's growth mindset and overall well-being.

Youth are constantly looking to better understand and define themselves in a social media world. It has been said that people cannot have a sense of purpose until they know how much they matter. This is even more true for children and youth who are in the thick of developing their identity. This interactive lecture will help us understand the value of relationships within the scope of youth identity while also helping us look at our own ability to help youth grow their self-understanding and initiative in healthy ways.

Learning Objectives:

1. Learn about the overarching framework of developmental relationships through the lenses of the Search Institute and Simple Interactions.

2. Dive into the four specific Positive Identity dimensions of the Search Institute’s 40 Developmental Assets.

3. Develop new tools & strategies that will encourage youth in strengthening their positive identity.
