Improving the Lives of Young People with Serious Mental Health Conditions Through Research & Training
New Pathways Comics Study Guides
Posted
These new Pathways Comics study guides raise questions for discussion and points for reflection about the events in Pathways Comics, Volumes 1 – 3. These study guides are intended to help service providers who work with young people with mental health conditions consider how their own initial engagement and continued work with young people can honor their perspective, prior experiences, and ultimately young people's expertise on their own lives.
Pathways comics are created by and for young adults and the people that care about them. In this set of issues, James and Zoe take a trip to the local drop-in center to use the computers, and James and Jarvis learn about its other services.
Pathways Transition Training Video Briefs: Evaluation Report
Posted
Ten 5–7 minute video briefs on identified areas of needed skill development with accompanying discussion questions and online resource lists were developed for transition service providers. A total of 47 peer support and non-peer service providers participated in an online evaluation of the video briefs. Both qualitative and quantitative results are contained in this report.
The newest e-learning tools from Pathways take the viewer through a video of a real interaction between a provider and a young person, allowing them to stop along the way and explore how the provider's responses can either support or impede the goal of having a youth-driven conversation. It is our goal that youth-service providers use these tools as an opportunity to enhance their skills and to reflect on the "improvables" in their own practice.
