Motivational Interviewing Training

A core value of our work at the BEST Initiative is Positive Youth Development. We believe in the voices and power of young people, and train youth workers to support their youth in all areas of their growth. With that in mind, we are offering an in-person Motivational Interviewing training, This one-day, 4.5-hour training will explore Motivational Interviewing as a strategy for working with young people.  In this training, we have adapted this counseling style for youth work practitioners working in youth programs. This training is a very hands-on approach to supporting youth, specifically in examining risky or problematic behaviors.  Participants will take away tools and activities to use with the young people that they work with.
