Experts will discuss youth well-being and the role of service providers in promoting positive youth development. Conversation will focus on adolescents in active-duty military families ages 12-18. Discussion will include using multi-pronged systems of support across the Defense Department’s Military Family Readiness System and strengths-based approaches to bolster youth well-being.
