St. Michael’s Community Partnership Series Presents:
Wednesday, February 7th, from 6-8 PM
Open to the general public and will be held on our campus in the Hill House (Gymnasium).
Current news about young people and mental health has created warranted concern, but the information can be overwhelming and hard to sort through. Parents need strategies to help their children manage their anxiety, moods, and social pressures. Based on current research and over 30 years of clinical experience, Lynn Lyons will talk about the common traps adults fall into and the key adjustments needed to prevent and help mental health challenges in our kids.
