This Summer, ReCAST II Mecklenburg is teaming up with Sources of Strength to provide the Sources of Strength Train the Trainer (T4T) course.
What is Sources of Strength?
Sources of Strength is a radically Strengths-based, upstream, suicide prevention program. Our evidence base shows how a Sources of Strength team (of trained Peer Leaders and Adult Advisors) will strengthen protective factors, increase help seeking behaviors & foster positive peer-to-peer and youth-to-adult connections, in your school and community.
The Train-the-Trainer (T4T) is an interactive four-day training designed for school-based staff to build skills in facilitating Sources of Strength Adult Advisor and Peer Leader trainings, as well as empower and equip participants to implement a Sources of Strength program to fidelity. The T4T will educate participants about the core philosophies and theories that inform our work and allow participants to experience the benefits of wellness work in their life. This powerful prevention work is not simply content for kids, but wellness for us all.
