SUMMARY:Turning the Tide Against a Sea of Mean
DESCRIPTION:Both boys and girls engage in bullying\, and researchers continually examine the role of gender in bullying behavior. While gender can impact how students bully\, there are many other influences that impact the behavior of our youth. Kids are overwhelmed with negative and harmful influences that create the “sea of mean” many of them live in day after day. Adults both in and out of schools and agencies must work together to both intervene in and prevent the “sea of mean” that threatens to tear down any semblance of kindness and decency left among our youth’s culture. This workshop will examine:  \n\nThe latest research specific to gender and bullying \n\n\nCurrent cultural norms and influences that encourage bullying and harassment among youth \n\n\nThe most recent research on the development of empathy in youth and specific strategies to facilitate this development  \n\n\nHow to create climates of respect both in and out of school \n\n\nAppropriate and creative disciplinary measures that engender accountability for bullying behavior \n\n\nThe digital life of youth and how to cross the “digital divide” to encourage safe and healthy digital engagement \n\n\nStrategies and resources to address bullying and harassment.

SUMMARY:This is Your Brain on Social Media
DESCRIPTION:Adults spend an average of three to four hours per day on their screens\, while youth spend an average of seven. Children are getting smartphones earlier than ever  ̶  53% of kids have one by age 11\, and 71% by age 12. While devices themselves are not addictive\, the social connections they give us are powerfully compelling. Smartphones provide us the ability to maintain those connections 24/7\, but at a cost. This workshop will:  \n\nLook at the social media trends among youth \n\n\nExamine the underlying science of smartphones\, social media and the brain \n\n\nReview the current research addressing media diet \n\n\nDiscuss the impact of social media and media diet on youth health \n\n\nLook at strategies for helping youth navigate the digital life.

DESCRIPTION:The Centers for Disease Control cited bullying as a widespread public health issue\, and in many instances\, shares a relationship with trauma\, albeit a complex one. Being bullied can significantly impact the physical\, emotional\, social\, academic and behavioral well-being of children and teens.

SUMMARY:Youth Mental Health: Addressing the Challenges Ahead
DESCRIPTION:Half of all mental health issues surface by age 14\, but many of those issues go unrecognized and untreated. In recent years\, there has been a significant increase in the number of children and adolescents experiencing major depressive episodes and anxiety\, mood\, attention and behavior disorders. One in five of our youth experience mental illness\, while nearly one in three adolescents will meet the criteria for an anxiety disorder by the age of 18. By mid-adolescence\, girls are more than twice as likely to be diagnosed with a mood disorder as boys. The effect of this is more than numbers and statistics  ̶  it is the impact on children\, adolescents and their families. This workshop will:  \n\nLook at the facts about mental health among children and adolescents \n\n\nReview the current research addressing depression\, anxiety\, mood\, attention and behavior disorders among children and youth \n\n\nDiscuss the impact of technology on mental health \n\n\nExamine the risks and protective factors impacting youth mental health \n\n\nLook at strategies and resources to help improve adolescents’ mental health.

SUMMARY:Addressing the Crisis of Youth Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:In December 2021\, the U.S. Surgeon General\, Dr. Vivek Murthy\, issued\, “A Surgeon General’s Advisory on Protecting Youth Mental Health.” The Advisory brought attention to the significant mental health issues experienced by our youth\, further impacted by the pandemic. In 2019\, 16% of youth ages 12 – 17 reported experiencing a major depressive episode in the past year\, double since 2009. From March to October of 2020\, visits to the emergency room by youth for mental health issues increased 31% for 12 – 17 years old and 24% for children 5 – 11 years old\, compared to 2019. \nThis workshop will look at factors that shape youth mental health\, current trends and challenges and actionable steps we can all take to address and prioritize the very real needs of our youth.

SUMMARY:Bullying\, Trauma and the Brain
DESCRIPTION:Research focused on bullying and cyberbullying among children and teens has found that the toxic stress from bullying victimization has a direct impact on the developing brain. Being targeted for bullying\, particularly long-term bullying\, impacts specific regions of the brain\, leading to chronic emotional stress\, compromised mental health and physical and social dysfunction. Researchers believe that youth who exhibit symptoms of depression and PTSD from bullying may actually be showing symptoms of neurophysiological changes. This workshop will:   \n\nLook at the long-term research addressing the impact of bullying on the developing brain \n\n\nExamine bullying as a traumatic stressor impacting brain health \n\n\nDiscuss the impact of bullying victimization among children\, teens and adults on their health and well-being \n\n\nReview effective strategies and resources to address bullying and cyberbullying.

SUMMARY:The Adolescent Brain and Substance Use and Abuse
DESCRIPTION:Adolescence is a time of great growth\, change and development. It’s a time when young adults can shape their brain’s development. It is also the time when the brain is more vulnerable to use and abuse than the adult brain. This workshop will explore the short and long-term impact of substance use on the developing brain and strategies to educate and encourage youth to make healthy decisions about substance use.

SUMMARY:Moving From Trauma Sensitive to Trauma Informed Agencies and Schools
DESCRIPTION:We know that at least one in four school-aged children have been exposed to a traumatic event that impacts learning and behavior. Using a trauma-informed approach with youth recognizes how prevalent trauma is and the many ways that trauma can manifest. Working with youth within a trauma-informed framework endeavors to avoid re-traumatization while focusing on strengths and developing resilience. This workshop will:  \n\nLook at trauma\, adverse childhood experiences and how experiencing trauma in childhood is different than trauma experienced at other times in life \n\n\nExamine the impact of trauma on brain development  \n\n\nReview how to provide trauma-informed services in schools utilizing resources from the PA Department of Education.

SUMMARY:Connected\, But Not … the Complicated Lives of Teens Today - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Youth are more connected than ever\, and those connections have changed how our youth connect. With a full 35% of teens preferring digital communications with their peers instead of in-person connections\, there has been a real decline in face-to-face social interactions.

How to make the way forward in our deeply connected but unconnected world is key to their health and welfare. This workshop will examine exactly how our youth connect\, as well as: \n\nThe rise in mental health issues among youth\, including major depressive disorder\, self-harm and suicide\nCurrent trends in social media and digital communication\nCommunities and inclusion in the online\, connected world\nHow we can help youth bridge the deficit of person-to-person connections and relationships\n\nIf you wish to register for a webinar\, please contact Amy Nace at alnace@pmyf.org or call 717-367-1536\, ext. 2.
