USICH Webinar: Harm Reduction for Youth

Sponsored by US Interagency Council on Homelessness

Thursday 12-Jan-12 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM EST

Event Description

Harm reduction is a model that has been very successful helping youth experiencing homelessness gain stability and direction. Using harm reduction for youth requires adapting the model to develop a youth appropriate intervention focused on positive development. Panelists from Lighthouse Youth Services in Cincinnati, OH and Preble Street in Portland, ME will join Jennifer Ho in an interactive forum to discuss the basics of a harm reduction model for youth and the benefits gained from meeting youth where they are at, offering them the supports and trusting relationships they need to gain stability.
