The training, held at the Crowne Plaza, focused on enhancing healthy development and well-being for Brevard\u2019s youth.<\/p>\n<p>The Center for the Study of Social Policy (CSSP) designed the Youth Thrive Framework: using Protective and Promotive Factors that focus on ways that youth can be supported to advance healthy development and well-being and reduce the impact of negative life experiences. In partnership with CSSP, The National Center for Innovation &amp; Excellence (NCFIE) is 1 of 2 Youth Thrive pilot sites, along with the state of New Jersey.<\/p>\n<p>Members of Brevard County School, Department of Juvenile Justice Probation, Guardian Ad Litem, Early Learning Coalition, Brevard Family Partnership, Brevard C.A.R.E.S., Paxen Community Connections, Crosswinds, Devereux, Impower, Brevard Behavioral Consultants, and local foster parents attended the 2-day long training to gain knowledge of adolescent development, cognitive and social\/emotional competence, and how to promote youth resilience.<\/p>\n<p>Jean Carpenter Williams, the Director of Training Development, National Resource Center for Youth Services, The University of Oklahoma Outreach, presented the Youth Thrive curriculum through a series of discussions, experimental activities and self\u2010reflection exercises. Jean has worked extensively with residential programs across the country on improving the culture of care, reducing seclusion and restraint, and effectively implementing the <em>Managing Aggressive Behavior<\/em> (MAB) program. \u00a0She and Frank Eckles, Past President of the National Child and Youth Care Certification Board, were contracted by the CSSP to develop their training curriculum for Trauma-Informed Care using the Youth Thrive protective factors as the foundation.<\/p>\n<p>Leonard D. Burton, Senior Fellow with CSSP, also joined the Youth Thrive training<\/p>\n<p>session. Leonard plays a leadership role with CSSP&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cssp.org\/reform\/child-welfare\/youth-thrive\">Youth Thrive<\/a>\u00a0initiative and his primary role is to help build a \u201cCommunity of Learning\u201d with public agencies and provide support, thought leadership and technical assistance to partners. Leonard was \u201cimpressed by the breadth and depth of the implementation of training.\u201d He also indicated that the volume of training participants demonstrates the strong commitment from community partners. Dr. Andy Munoz, also in attendance,\u00a0is CSSP\u2019s lead consultant supporting Brevard Youth Thrive who has been with the program since inception. <strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the many goals of the training was to disseminate useful information to parents, caregivers, and community members so that they will better understand how they\u2014in their respective roles\u2014can prioritize healthy development for young people to grow into successful, productive and caring members of society.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Brevard Youth Thrive and NCFIE, please contact Ashley Carraro at call 321-752-4650 or visit www.ncfie.org.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MELBOURNE, Fla. \u2013 September 1, 2015 \u2013 Last week, more  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6069","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press-releases","wpautop"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.7 -
