Please join us on Thursday, May 25, from noon to 1:15 p.m. ET, for the virtual lecture, Unleashing the Power of Prevention To Enhance Well-Being Across the Lifespan, by Dr. Margaret Kuklinski of the University of Washington School of Social Work.

Effective prevention interventions can help to promote well-being in young people and stop problems before they begin. In her talk, Dr. Kuklinski will trace the evolution of prevention science and share the latest findings from longitudinal intervention studies based on the Social Development Strategy. Examples include Guiding Good Choices, a program for parents and caregivers to help them support positive development and the prevention of behavioral problems in their children, and Communities That Care, a prevention system.

Dr. Kuklinski is the director of the University of Washingtons Social Development Research Group, which has been developing, testing, and disseminating effective preventive interventions for more than 40 years. Her talk is part of the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Healths Integrative Medicine Research Lecture Series.
