What's Up with Social Media?
This presentation was originally developed by two SaySo members who also served as summer interns in 2011 with the Division of Social Services. At the time, administrators wanted some guidance on how to use social media, dangers, and benefits to using with foster youths. It has since been presented several times in North Carolina to both youths and adults (professionals and caregivers) to help facilitate discussions and clear up assumptions.
This presentation also made its national debute in September 2012 at the National Independent Living Association (NILA) Conference in Atlanta. Over 50 people attended this workshop which was lively, engaging and helped everyone discuss their concerns and need to develop guidelines for both professionals and youths in care.
If you would like a SaySo youth(s) to present this workshop to your youth or adult audience, please email [email protected] or call 800-820-0001.
