Did you know that when the well-known would-be substance-use prevention specialist William Shakespeare wrote that "the web of our life is a mingled yarn" he was actually writing about the Social Development Strategy? (It's absolutely true!) Come find out how. During this workshop, we will take a closer look at the Social Development Strategy as an essential youth protective framework and consider the five basic elements that together provide strong social development for young people: bonding, opportunities, skills, clear and healthy standards, and recognition. You will come to understand more clearly what young people need most to build good and healthy lives, and together we will learn how to use this strategy in our various communities to nurture more resilient humans and create stronger buffers around them. (And you might even learn a little more Shakespeare along the way!)

Join us for a chance to win a blender that can help you support class projects and support food waste reduction. 1 in 10 children in Utah faces hunger (Feeding America, 2019). There is a constant gap in feeding food-insecure children healthy meals in schools with limited resources and tons of food being discarded (Nargi, 2019). Join us to learn how to effectively deliver a program focused on food waste reduction, aligned with Utah educational standards, National 4-H priorities, and public health priorities. We will offer practical strategies to combat the critical issue of food waste using our comprehensive, hands-on curriculum tailored for delivery in an Afterschool program. Gain insights into the environmental, economic, and social impacts of food waste, and walk away equipped to inspire your students to make a difference.
