PQA Methods Workshop: Ask Listen Encourage

Supportive Environment Domain

Ask-Listen-Encourage – Do you communicate with youth in a way that makes them feel supported and heard? This interactive workshop introduces various communication techniques that help you build more supportive, youth-centered relationships. Participants will learn how to ask more effective questions, to listen actively to youth, and offer youth encouragement rather than praise.

Build supportive, youth-centered relationships by asking effective questions and listening actively to youth. Empower and support youth to learn through the use of specific, non-evaluative comments.
