A Grand Goal For YES: Ending Youth Violence
posted (March 10, 2016)
"Ending Youth Violence in the country," that was the main topic of discussion during a 2 day workshop with stakeholders including TIDE, PLENTY Belize, POWER, the Child Development Foundation and The Special Olympics. The idea was to train trainers in identifying and intervening in cases of child abuse and child sexual abuse. The program hopes to reach out to parents, medical practitioners, coaches, and just about anybody who comes in contact with youths.

We spoke with Karen Cain the Director of the Youth Enhancement Services about the initiative.

The workshop was an initiative headed by the Youth Enhancement Service and is being financed by UNICEF.
