Description

“The Glass Ain’t Half Full, Heck It’s Overflowing!” Strength-based practice is an emerging approach to helping young people that is very positive and hope-inspiring. Its focus is on strength-building rather than flaw-fixing. It begins with the belief that every child and youth has strengths and past successes that can be utilized to stop problem behavior and enhance decision making. This keynote address will highlight some of the key principles and techniques of this life-changing, inspiring approach to maximizing the potential of every youth.
