Strategies for Truancy Prevention

Date/Time (ET): 
April 27, 2009 - 12:00pm - 1:00pm
Led By: 
National Center for Mental Health Promotion and Youth Violence Prevention

Truancy is one of the main problems that our school systems are facing. As one of our SSHS Project Directors said “Truancy is the gateway to crime”, please join us and listen to two sites that created systems to support prevention, intervention and systemic change to address the issue of truancy. You will have the opportunity to learn from their experiences and to ask any questions that will facilitate implementation of effective strategies in your community.
