ADDRESSING YOUTH VIOLENCE
Attention! Attention! YOUTH AT RISK! *This warning should be blaring all across the country. Because what we believe to be our most valuable resource, our youth, is at risk! Are you afraid to listen to the nightly news thinking you’ll hear more horrific stories of senseless violence, mass shooting, and deaths by murder and suicide…all committed by youth? Youth violence is a major public health concern that is taking center stage throughout our nation and growing at an alarming rate. The negative impact on the younger population is also increasing daily as our communities are simultaneously being depleted of our greatest resource – our youth. Participants who attend this fresh, new conference will be exposed to valuable information on topics about trauma, depression, substance abuse, suicide, anger management, mental health, and more. Presenters will share strategies and solutions that, when implemented, can create change in the lives of our youth. If you are interested in what YOU, as a community stakeholder, can do to help address this serious public health problem then you should REGISTER TODAY. If you are an educator, law enforcement personnel, counselor, social worker, youth worker, community leader… In other words, if you work with youth in any capacity you NEED to JOIN US at The Yellow Brick Road on March 13-15, 2024 in Philadelphia, MS or March 20-22, 2024 in Biloxi, MS and bring a friend.
