Please join us and Project NIA for this webinar on Young People and Mandated Reporting, the latest session in our Building Your Abolitionist Toolbox series.

This is a release event for You Matter: An Illustrated Guide for Young People Beyond Mandatory Reporting, a new zine developed to support young people, especially those under the age of 18, to answer the question, “when something hard happens who can I reach out to for help?”

The reality of mandatory reporting can make it hard for young people to know that if they reach out to adults for help will that adult have to report what you tell them? This zine helps answer the question, “What is mandatory reporting?” and helps explore what support you have, what support you need, and uses art, poetry, and music to explore what’s possible.

Brought to you by the Mandatory Reporting is Not Neutral Project with support from Just Beginnings Collaborative and the Youth Interns at Good Foot Arts Collective. We invite you to join us, and use this new tool to doodle, draw, journal, and explore.

Presenters: Shannon Perez-Darby, Laura Chow Reeve, and Shawn Koyano

Live ASL interpretation and closed captioning will be provided.
