Youth Guide—Stronger Than You Know: Tools for Navigating Life’s Challenges

Join SAMHSA for a free, 30-minute webinar to learn how to use the National Center on Substance Abuse and Child Welfare (NCSACW) youth guide “Stronger Than You Know: Tools for Navigating Life’s Challenges,” to help young people affected by their parents’ substance use, mental health challenges, and child welfare involvement build resilience, stay safe, and navigate difficult life experiences.

After this session, you will:

• Strengthen your ability to recognize and respond to the unique needs of youth affected by parental substance use, mental health challenges, and child welfare involvement.
• Gain knowledge of resources and tools that help youth prepare for independence, including financial and transitional-age resources.
• See how the guide can be applied through a real-world case example.
• Leave with a practical tool you can begin using with youth immediately.

Ideal for child welfare professionals, substance-use and mental health providers, educators, mentors, court partners, and anyone supporting youth and families.

Register today to receive a ready-to-use resource that can help young people strengthen resilience and take steps toward healthier futures.
