ISACS Webinar: Back-To-School Momentum: Prepping Children of All Ages for the Challenges (& Successes) of a New School Year

ISACS WEBINAR

ALL GISC PARENTS ARE INVITED. Register with this LINK.

We all benefit from knowing effective, active, and creative strategies to confront worry and anxiety. Families need clear direction on HOW to respond when anxiety or worry flares up. Parents are an instrumental part of the process and benefit greatly by collaborating directly with the school. Based on current research and years of clinical experience, learn a strategic approach based on skill-building, with emphasis on prevention that benefits students, their families, and educators. There is great opportunity to learn what works and what doesn't. What are the mistakes we continue to make? How can we take advantage of a new school year's positivity? What are the myths we need to bust, the paradigms we need to shift, and the skills we must build? This webinar is for parents and caregivers of grades 1-12.

Note: The recording for this webinar will be available until December 31, 2024.
