The Parent Mental Health Workshop is dedicated to parents and caregivers. It is a place to ask questions, gather information, and become familiar with local mental health resources for students and caregivers. During the workshop you will receive tips on how to promote resilience and reduce anxiety, obtain information on children and youth mental health, and access free mental health screenings. 

Light refreshments will be served. Our goal is have you leave informed and empowered.
