Askable Adult Campaign
Every young person deserves someone they can talk to—really talk to—without fear of being judged or dismissed. Askable Adults provide that safe, open space. Our 90-minute training offers simple, practical tools for listening well, encouraging healthy conversations, and responding with care.

Course Description
The single most common factor for children who develop resilience to stress and adversity is having at least one stable relationship with a supportive parent, caregiver, or another adult (Harvard Center for the Developing Child). This is especially critical for young people working to develop a positive sense of self in a culture that often devalues them based on their identity, ability, background, or status.
​
Participants will build the skills necessary to be an informed, approachable adult to whom young people can turn for help in navigating stress and challenges on a day-to-day basis.
This program was developed by the Vermont Network Against Domestic and Sexual Violence
