Lunch and Learn Trainings

As we launch on our new statewide training initiative, Community Prevention Training, we will be providing prevention education to residents in all 46 counties in South Carolina three (3) times. The training covers such topics as the importance of fatherhood, stress management, youth gang involvement and shared leadership in setting that’s positive and informative. Because PCASC is committed to encouraging community-wide involvement, all training events are open to the general public as well as interested parents, educators and healthcare professionals.

Each “Lunch and Learn” session incorporates an interactive format and as the name suggests, takes place during lunchtime hours, 12:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. Sessions can accommodate 35 - 50 participants, based on the location scheduled. We provide a convenient way for child care providers, medical professionals and concerned citizens to access our resources.

In order to make this training initiative a success, PCASC relies on businesses and organizations to lend their support as community leaders in the counties that we serve.
