Register for the 2023 Virtual Learning & Leadership Summit
Every child has tremendous promise and we all share in the responsibility to nurture this potential. We can do so by supporting families in achieving their goals and developing their capacities to nurture positive childhoods. Join us on March 27-28th for the 2023 Virtual Learning and Leadership Summit presented by Prevent Child Abuse North Carolina and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services.
Why attend?
When we collectively raise awareness about strategies, policies and investments proven to increase the time and capacity for supportive family relationships, we are nurturing positive childhoods and promoting greater wellbeing for children, families and communities. The Summit will enhance participants’ practice and leadership skills through presentations and educational workshops designed to help us all support and strengthen families throughout NC and activate support for effective prevention practice. Sessions will offer insight into the latest research, strategies for increasing protective factors and building resilience, effective implementation, public awareness and advocacy. Join us in making North Carolina a state that prioritizes child maltreatment prevention; a place where we nurture positive childhoods, together.
