What’s New in Thrive:
Updates to Youthand and Families Thrive
The Youth Thrive training was launched in 2014 and after many changes, is now in its third edition. The Families Thrive training was launched in 2017 and is in its third edition as well. It was designed to incorporate the material in Youth Thrive and Strengthening Families into a single curriculum that implements the protective and promotive factors from birth through young adulthood. This enables trainers to teach both Youth Thrive and Families Thrive based on the needs and interests of their communities.
