Train-the-Trainers

We offer a variety of train-the-trainers sessions, to provide community partners with in-depth, hands-on learning experiences. These sessions equip participants with the skills and knowledge needed to deliver health and safety messages to community members, families, parents, and caregivers, either one-on-one or in group settings.

Graduates of the trainings receive a comprehensive resource toolkit, including prepared presentations, talking points, and educational materials for distribution. Additionally, they may gain access to prevention tools—such as gun safes, sleep sacks, medication lock boxes, microgreen supplies, and oral health kits—to distribute to the families they educate.
