On Friday, June 20th, our Resiliency Essentials Director, Kayt, proudly facilitated the first-ever Dynamic Trainers Workshop for Youth! This pilot workshop focused on teaching youth advocates the skills and confidence needed to deliver effective presentations to their peers and younger students.
Participants became certified youth facilitators in three of Makin’ It Happen’s key curricula including our own Tobacco and Vaping Awareness presentation, Gizmo’s PAWSOME Guide to Mental Health developed through the AFSP Curriculum, and Over the Counter Medicine Safety provided by Kenvue in partnership with CADCA.
Each of these curriculums addresses ongoing health and wellness priorities in the Greater Manchester Region, and we are thrilled to have these youth support our mission and help us refine and prepare our workshop for a Fall ’25 launch.
Congratulations to our first cohort of youth facilitators! You are amazing!
