Children’s Summit: The Power of Connection
The Elkhart County Children’s Summit is an annual gathering of those who serve and care about our youth. Join with your colleagues to hear national and local speakers as well as youth and families who have themselves experienced our services and systems. We will leave with new ideas, hope, and energy for the work.
Learning Objectives
As a result of this training, participants will:
- Understand the social influences of mental health and identify practical ways to support youth mental health
- Describe how youth and families engage in the mental health system and identify at least one way they can help improve it
- Describe how the juvenile justice system intersects with youth mental health and how it impacts youth
