STRIVE (Support to Reunite, Involve and Value Each Other) is a psycho-educational intervention for reunifying families and their adolescents who have run away. Developed by Dr. Norweeta Milburn, STRIVE is a evidence-based approach to family mediation developed by ETR (Education, Training and Research), a non-profit out of UCLA. Project STRIVE aims to intervene in the lives of newly homeless youth and young adults to prevent them from spiraling into chronic homelessness, by successfully reunifying them with their parents or guardians. The CT Coalition to End Homelessness is excited to offer a two-day training on this innovative approach to prevent and help end youth homelessness led by Connecticut’s very own STRIVE trainers and is open to all who work with families and/or youth. Attendance on both days is required for STRIVE Certification and CEUs.
