Navigating your Children’s Mental Health Challenges:
A Parent Support Group
Join us the first Monday of each month to connect with other parents experiencing similar challenges and to learn more about relevant topics relating to mental health in children and youth.
The first part of each evening will be facilitated by presenters from our Anxiety Series and will offer an informal opportunity to check in, connect and share with other parents. The second part of each evening will be led by a guest speaker who will share their wisdom and expertise on topics that resonate with so many of us.
Our first session will be held October 2, 2023, 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
