EDCT Programs & Events
YES! Team
Since the 2009-10 school year, EDCT-Northeast has implemented EDCT's Youth Education and Support (YES!) Team curriculum in more than 40 schools in the Tri-State area. The 2011-12 YES! Team program in the Northeast has been generously underwritten by a $2,000 grant from HEAL Appalachia.
Speakers Bureau
A Speakers Bureau training session was held for new EDCT members in December 2009. Currently, EDCT-Northeast has many members who are trained and eager to speak to schools, civic groups, and other organizations. If you are interested in scheduling a presentation for your group or organization, please contact EDCT-Northeast Regional Coordinator Misty Bays.

EDCT-Northeast offers one advanced clinical training session per year, typically in the fall. For more information, contact Misty Bays.
