National Trends and Services

Empowering people; transforming lives

The vision of the National Trends and Services facet is to eliminate disparities by reducing barriers to services through advocacy, education, and service. The goals include increasing the number of sustainable and measurable programs; increasing collaborative partnerships; and extending our existing initiatives to include communities identified as having the greatest need.

Our programs serve as a catalyst for change promoting individual and community empowerment.

Trash Talking: It’s No Joke!
To bring awareness to the growing crisis of bullying, we are excited to introduce a comprehensive community anti-bullying program Trash Talking; It's No Joke! The goal of this newest National Trends and Services initiative is to empower youth with the tools and skills to address bullying in all forms. Research shows that bullying adversely affects children's mental health, academic success and ability to relate to other children according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The goals for this program are:

To enhance a child’s ability to avoid victimization
To enhance a child’s self-esteem
To reduce the feelings of guilt and blame associated with victimization
To promote disclosure of abuse and victimization
To enhance and coordinate community response
To enhance communication between parents and children about personal safety
To reinforce adult supervision and protection
To deter offender behavior
