Communities, including school communities, play an important role in shaping the mental wellbeing and safety of young people. As a new semester starts and the COVID-19 pandemic continues, mental health and violence prevention practitioners are finding ways to address shared risk and protective factors in a way that prioritizes enriching and empowering experiences for young people. 

This web conference features community-based leaders in San Diego, CA and school-based advocates in Multnomah County, OR who are creating comprehensive youth wellbeing strategies to improve safety outcomes. Join PreventConnect and practitioners across the country to explore how the pandemic is impacting students’ wellbeing, what implications this has on sexual violence and dating violence prevention, and how we can take action.
