Positive Influencers
The Bulimia Anorexia Nervosa Association realizes that the last year has been a difficult one for us all.
Never has it been more important to remember the need for kindness. Towards others and towards ourselves.
Our Positive Influencer page is in response to a need for resources for Adult Influencers of youth in regards to health and wellness. Funding for this project is supported by the Paradise Charitable Gaming Association.
This page is designed as an outlet for any adult influencers seeking information for youth. Various topics will be covered through downloadable resources.
As part of our commitment to the continuum of care, we will make every effort to provide contact information for local and regional professionals and services to assist both influencers and youth.
Influencer Activities
The activities below can be used by Adult Influencers with youth to initiate dialogue, explore new concepts and develop knowledge and understanding.
Some of these materials have been developed as lesson plans for teachers but can be modified for individual use.
Positivity Letter Board Ideas
Letter boards are a great way to communicate and engage youth on positive messaging.
We’re happy to share some of ours to help get you started.
