Webinar - From Concern to Community: Social Supports to Heal and Promote Self-Determined Lives
The 3rd webinar in a series focuses on the fourth and fifth phases of the Undocumented Stress Cycle, which involve experiences of chronic fears and concerns as well as the various ways young people learn to cope with them. Social contexts play a crucial role in shaping how young people learn to make sense of their status and their possibilities for living fulfilling lives. Accordingly, the goals of this webinar are to (a) discuss prominent concerns and struggles experienced by young persons impacted by undocumented status and (b) identify useful practices for helping young persons develop self-compassion and affirmative identities that can lead to more self-determined ways of living.
