SUMMARY:The Power of Prevention - Scituate FACTS
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, November 13th \n1:00 – 3:00pm \nGates Middle School \nFor familes with children ages 5-25 \nOur afternoon summit for parents and other caring adults is back! Jessica Lahey\, NYT best-selling author of The Gift of Failure\, will share the science of prevention through relatable stories from her latest book\, The Addiction Inoculation. \nThe Power of Prevention Summit is FREE to attend for parents\, caregivers\, coaches\, teachers\, clergy\, and others committed to raising children. The goal of this prevention summit is to share information and build skills among adults which can impact specific risk and protective factors in children. Once again\, we have organized the content into a single afternoon for a busy audience. \nOur keynote presenter is parenting author and mom in recovery\, Jessica Lahey. She will share science and relatable stories to help parents\, educators\, and others understand the roots of addiction\, to identify who is most at risk for developing a problem\, as well as clear\, practical steps for prevention. Yes\, please. \nAccording to the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse\, teen drug addiction is the nation’s largest preventable and costly health problem. Despite the existence of proven preventive strategies\, nine out of ten adults with substance use disorder report they began drinking and taking drugs before age eighteen. \nThe Addiction Inoculation is a comprehensive resource that caring adults can use to prevent substance problems in children. Based on research in child welfare\, psychology\, substance abuse\, and developmental neuroscience\, this essential guide provides evidence-based strategies and practical tools adults need to understand\, support\, and educate resilient\, addiction-resistant children. The guidelines are age-appropriate and actionable—from navigating a child’s risk for addiction\, to interpreting signs of early abuse\, to advice for broaching difficult conversations with children. Books available for sale from Buttonwood Books at the event (cash/credit card)\, with book-signing available at the end of the program! \nPlus Scituate- specific data\, tips and resources. Coffee and refreshments. Don’t miss! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the speaker\nJessica Lahey is the author of the New York Times bestselling book\, The Gift of Failure: How the Best Parents Learn to Let Go So Their Children Can Succeed and The Addiction \nInoculation: Raising Healthy Kids in a Culture of Dependence. \nOver twenty years\, Jess has taught every grade from sixth to twelfth in both public and private schools\, and spent five years teaching in a drug and alcohol rehab for adolescents in \nVermont\, and serves as a prevention and recovery coach at Sana at Stowe\, a medical detox and recovery center in Stowe\, Vermont.
