Program Coordinator, Brightways Learning
MTPLC Mini Wellness Conference - June 13, 2025
1-hour virtual session from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.
During this session, participants will explore the Full-Color Web of Support™ framework, which integrates extensive wellness and youth development research into one practical, measurable model. This introductory session equips participants with innovative tools to amplify each youth’s strengths and help them self-activate their complex system of support. Participants learn how to help youth build protective factors to mitigate trauma and decrease risk behaviors, such as bullying, substance abuse, suicidal ideation, and more. Participants walk away with the capacity-building skills to recognize, appreciate, and magnify what is right about youth, assuring their chance to flourish.
