What does it look like to support newcomer youth and families when entire communities are being impacted by immigration enforcement and uncertainty? How can service providers respond in ways that are grounded, culturally responsive, and sustaining for newcomer youth and families and for themselves?

Join us for an upcoming training workshop presented by USCRI’s Refugee Youth Resource Center, to explore practical strategies for supporting newcomer youth and families navigating today’s immigration landscape.

This 1.5-hour training is intended for service providers working with refugee and other ORR-eligible children and youth, including resettlement agencies, child welfare, schools, health/mental health providers, anti-trafficking organizations, and others.

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

1. Describe current immigration-related stressors and their impacts on newcomer youth, families, and communities.

2. Support newcomer youth and families experiencing immigration-related stressors through culturally responsive, strength-based approaches, family preparedness planning, connection to community resources, and know-your-rights education.

3. Identify the emotional impacts of the current immigration landscape on staff and implement strategies to support staff well-being.

We hope you can join us! Please share this webinar information widely with your networks.
