Foundations: How to Build & Sustain
the Communication
Pipeline with Young Adults
Recruiting and
appealing to young adults ages 18-24 can be challenging for a multitude of
reasons. In this webinar, Vanessa Logan describes her unique “boots on the
ground” approach for how to build trust with marginalized young adults and
consequently is able to provide them with tools to develop self-sufficiency.
Integrated into her approach is the essential building of healthy relationship
skills with pregnant and parenting youth, empowering them to successfully
parent or even co-parent when no longer together. With a heart for people, Vanessa identifies
critical needs of the under-served and builds bridges by partnering with
organizations and community initiatives to uncover resources and move others
toward economic mobility and self-sufficiency. Vanessa has a voice in the
community for what makes a community thrive: its people.
Objectives:Through the
example of Vanessa Logan, webinar attendees will learn to:
- Recruit
young adults 18-24 years old into Healthy Relationship programming;
- Build
trust with them in order to provide tools to help them build Healthy
Relationships; and
- Navigate and empower 18-24-year-olds through obstacles that often get them off track when working towards their life
goals.

staff workers in Community Action Agencies, Community Health, University
Extension, Non-profit and Church organizations, Alternative High School
