SUMMARY:Aprendiendo del amor: Apoyando a nuestra juventud y familias hispanas
DESCRIPTION:Esta presentation de 3 horas está dirigida a padres\, familiares\, líderes de la comunidad\, maestros/maestras y cualquier persona que trabaje con jóvenes. Analizaremos maneras de apoyar a los jóvenes a través de relaciones para que tomen decisiones saludables y cómo iniciar conversaciones con ellos sobre el consumo de sustancias adictivas. Nuestra presentación incluirá información sobre los servicios de First Call y los recursos disponibles para la comunidad. \n \nMarialba Quesada es una antropóloga centroamericana enfocada en el desarrollo comunitario y los derechos humanos. Tiene 8 años de experiencia en la reforma de políticas internacionales sobre drogas\, con un enfoque en la juventud\, y 10 años de conocimiento en la reducción de daños\, principalmente centrada en las poblaciones latinas. \n \nNatalia Negrón Stamm\, MPS\nEspecialista en Prevención Comunitaria\nNatalia estudió Desarrollo Infantil y Adolescencia en la Universidad de Illinois en Urbana-Champaign y se graduó en 2007. Comenzó su carrera en un centro de desarrollo infantil para niños con necesidades especiales. Luego\, se dedicó a enseñar clases de baile y ejercicio para niños y adultos\, lo que la llevó a tener su propio gimnasio. En 2024\, vendió su negocio y comenzó una nueva carrera en First Call como Especialista en Prevención Comunitaria. Lo que más le gusta de su trabajo es enseñar clases de habilidades sociales y emocionales en escuelas primarias y secundarias del área de Kansas City\, sabiendo que estas habilidades han demostrado ayudar a los niños a tomar mejores decisiones sobre el consumo de sustancias adictivas y la conducta riesgosa. \n  \n\nHéctor Contreras\, MPS\, MAADC I\nConsejero juvenil\, First Call\nHéctor Contreras es un consejero juvenil dedicado en First Call\, apasionado por empoderar a los jóvenes para que alcancen su máximo potencial. Su compromiso con el desarrollo de los jóvenes comenzó durante sus años universitarios en Arkansas\, donde trabajó en un campamento deportivo y de aventura en Beaver Lake y más tarde se desempeñó como subdirector de un programa extracurricular que apoyaba a comunidades desfavorecidas en todo el noroeste de Arkansas. En 2020\, Héctor se trasladó a Kansas City para dedicarse a la salud mental\, trabajando como gerente residencial y especialista en comportamiento en Embark Behavioral Health. Estas experiencias han dado forma a un enfoque de asesoramiento basado en la validación\, el empoderamiento y el crecimiento. A partir de su experiencia como mexicano nativo y su dominio del inglés y el español\, Héctor aporta un profundo conocimiento de su origen étnico y su acogida a su trabajo con los jóvenes y las familias. Anteriormente colaboró con la Universidad Estatal de Wichita y el estado de Kansas para desarrollar un plan de estudios que explorara la intersección entre los trastornos por consumo de sustancias y las comunidades de habla hispana. Más allá de su trabajo como consejero\, Héctor sigue desafiándose a sí mismo personalmente\, más recientemente al completar la media maratón de Kansas City\, lo que refleja su compromiso con la perseverancia\, el crecimiento y el bienestar holístico.
