The session introduces solution-focused therapy\, strength-based practices\, and empathy as actionable tools. Participants learn to integrate these concepts into clinical care\, education\, legal systems\, and daily interactions. Emphasizing adolescent development and addiction neuroscience\, it explains behavior patterns and recovery potential. This is a practical toolkit\, not a lecture—equipping professionals\, educators\, and caregivers to respond compassionately with science-based understanding and human-centered care. \nCEs will be available. The conference is being held at the Renaissance Austin Hotel in Austin\, Texas as well as virtually. To learn more and register\, please visit the 35th Texas School Social Workers Conference website.

SUMMARY:Partner Event | 31st Annual Adolescent Health Symposium - University of Wisconsin La Crosse
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Thursday\, February 12\, 2026 from 3:45 PM – 4:45 PM at the 31st Annual Adolescent Health Symposium – University of Wisconsin La Crosse to hear from PHT’s CEO\, Drew Dutton\, M.Ed.\, MBA\, MAPP\, LPC-S\, LCDC\, ACPS. Drew will be presenting Project Empathy: Understanding Adolescent Addiction Through Neuroscience and Human Connection. \nProject Empathy is a research-informed\, interactive workshop that reframes adolescent addiction through the lens of neuroscience\, development\, and connection. The session breaks down how the teenage brain processes reward\, stress\, and decision-making—offering a clear explanation for why adolescents are uniquely wired for risk\, bonding\, and rapid learning. Participants explore how dopamine\, impulse control\, and prefrontal cortex development influence substance use patterns and recovery potential. Instead of relying on fear-based or punitive strategies\, the workshop demonstrates how empathy and strengths-based communication interrupt shame and increase buy-in. Attendees learn practical ways to use accurate empathy\, clarity\, and modeling to keep adolescents engaged\, even when they appear resistant or ambivalent. The session also challenges common misconceptions in youth treatment\, highlighting how outdated models can unintentionally reinforce stigma and shut down communication. Real examples illustrate how to translate brain science into conversations that parents\, schools\, and youth can actually understand. By the end\, participants will have a developmentally informed framework for supporting adolescents that emphasizes possibility\, relationship\, and long-term resilience. \nCEs will be available. The symposium is being held at the virtually. To learn more and register\, please visit the 31st Annual Adolescent Health Symposium – University of Wisconsin La Crosse website.
