Families and APS staff:
The Hampden-Wilbraham Partners Youth Coalition with support from the Rotary Club of Wilbraham-Hampden cordially invites the Agawam Public School community and the town of Agawam community to participate in a LIVE webinar on Wednesday, October 21st, from 7:00-8:00 PM.
So much has changed in such a short time… for kids, AND for parents! In this webinar, local family therapist Steve Opalenik will share insights and tips for guiding our young people to not just survive, but thrive through the many uncertainties that have impacted just about every aspect of daily life. Topics will include: How is the pandemic affecting kids’ mental health? How can we best support our children, and “parent for resilience?” What signs, symptoms or behaviors might indicate that my child is struggling? Where can I find additional help/ resources if needed?
