SLP Workshop Follow-up: Teens Part 1



Penny Johnson from Baraboo was our featured presenter talking about engaging promotions and programs for teens.  She had some inspiring things to say to start us off.  The 40 Developmental Assets for Adolescents, created and studied by the Search Institute have been used by people who work with teens as a guide for more than a decade.  Penny mentioned that a public library with a robust teen program can answer more assets than any other community organization!

Penny created a handout and a Pinterest page, and I'll be following up with some specific ideas she and others shared at the workshop in the coming days.  For now, look at this awesome array of promotion ideas:
  • Fold cootie catchers with information about library programs for teens, and distribute in school lunch rooms, your teen area, and other places teens hang out in your community.
