Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Congrats to the Class of 2021! Happy Pride Month! June is a month of celebrations, as we honor our graduates and the LGBTQ+ community. #lovewins
This free, two-part training will focus on the six CRM® wellness skills, as well as the neuroscience behind the model. The workshops are designed to reset the nervous system by bringing the body, mind, and spirit into greater balance.
If you were not able to attend Part 1, please join us for Part 2! Each training session will focus on three of the CRM wellness skills. Part 1 will be available soon our Video Library (YouTube).
This year, we're proud to report that The Parent Education Series provided education for over 16,000 parents, students, educators, and community members.
We pivoted from in-person to virtual programming, lowered barriers to access, and offered high-quality events to more families than ever before!
New videos include The Rejection That Changed My Life: Helping Kids Turn It Around; How to They/Them: A Guide to Nonbinary Pronouns; and "Typical Teenagers...": Health Risk Behaviors, Perception, and Why It Matters.
Have a wonderful summer!
