Encouraging Communities

Encouraging Communities to be Family-Friendly

It takes a community to make a difference.  E3 family promotes positive youth development, risk avoidance prevention programs, and family-friendly policies to strengthen the community as a whole.

Our Involvement

Community Advocate

The E3 family Solutions team is a vocal advocate of prevention programs and their impact on the community financially and socially.  By educating community leaders, organizations, and professionals on the benefits of these programs, we are paving the way for more opportunities to reach teens before they begin engaging in risky behaviors so that we might, in turn, create healthy, stable, family-friendly communities.

Professional Training

In addition to advocating for prevention programs, E3 offers training for educators, school counselors, psychologists, and other professionals who work with teens regularly by utilizing our “Understanding the Teenage Brain” program.  Participants are treated to a hands-on, in-depth, scientific breakdown of how the teenage brain reacts during this stage of its development.  This knowledge allows professionals to develop better strategies for communicating with teens in their work environments. 

Testimonials

In 2014 E3 Family Solutions was chosen as Non-Profit of the Year by the Community Foundation of South Lake County.

E3 Family Solutions was chosen as non-profit of the year for many reasons. But probably the most important is that they use research-based strategies to implement their programs and use data to measure success. We want to see organizations who are not only passionate about the people they serve but do so in an efficient and effective way.  E3 is the model for accomplishing great things with limited resources. We hope to see them continue to grow so they can serve more and more young people in our community by helping them make better decisions.
