Adolescence is a crucial time of transition and growth, so we want to give our kids tools that prepare them for life's challenges. In order to cope with increasing anxiety, it isn't surprising that teens are drawn to behaviors that distract or numb uncomfortable feelings, including go-to distractions like social media, gaming, shopping, food, relationships, exercise and increasingly potent and available substances.

This free program will provide support and useful tools from experts who have dedicated their lives to understanding and treating teens and young adults. Guest presenter is Eric Tankel, MSEd, LPC, who specializes in a range of mental and emotional health issues.

Register for this free program at https://conversation.zone/event/gv2/.

Free babysitting is available.
