SUMMARY:Community Trauma and Child Well-Being: A Deeper Dive into the Future of Healing
DESCRIPTION:Historical and intergenerational trauma is real and far reaching. The cumulative emotional wounding from generation to generation can contribute to many negative health outcomes for individuals including PTSD\, depression and Type 2 diabetes – as well as impacting the community as a whole. \nThis year’s Forum will focus on the “how” of our work. How can we best understand and begin to address community trauma? What practical tools are available for those of us who work with children\, youth and families to start the healing process?   \n•  Delve into topics of racism\, inequality and poverty and explore more collective approaches to healing. \n•  Hear from a panel of community leaders who focus on healing in their approach to working with individuals\, communities and systems. \n•  Walk away with concrete strategies that support children and youth (and the adults working with them) in a holistic\, strength-based way.

SUMMARY:Mentoring During COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:The current global pandemic and resulting social distancing and closing of schools and nonprofit programs has thrown the mentoring field into a dizzying time of program adaptations\, on-the-fly technology solutions\, and radically changed mentor-mentee relationships. Please join leading scholar Dr. Michelle Kaufman of Johns Hopkins University and MENTOR: The National Mentoring Partnership for a webinar discussing Dr. Kaufman’s important new study: Mentoring During COVID-19. This qualitative study features the real-life experiences of mentors from across the country who share how social distancing and technology integration has impacted their mentoring relationships\, sometimes in unexpected positive ways. Hear about some of the solutions mentors are employing to stay in contact with mentees during this time\, as well as some of the longer-term considerations mentoring programs should have in mind as they consider switching to blended or online-only mentoring solutions.
