Training Description
Training will address the following guiding questions for participants: Who do we define as “newcomers” and where are they coming from? How does trauma impact newcomer youth, communities, and those who support them? Training will provide strategies and best practices for connecting with and supporting these at-risk or system involved youth and their families, through cultural humility and multi-tiered systems of support.
Learning Objective
All participants will leave this session with greater knowledge about newcomer youth from Central America, including their reasons for coming, their needs, and the challenges they face.
All participants will learn more about newcomers in the East Bay.
