@ Penrose Library 20 N Cascade Ave.
Colorado Springs, Co. 80903
In a world with all the scrolling and trolling; blaming and shaming—parents have their work cut out for them. The challenge becomes even more intensified when parenting a youth struggling with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation; in fact, it can become a matter of life or death. This workshop invites parents to talk about and work through tempering expectations, grounding one’s self in stressful situations, and aiding your teen or child to do the same. Parents will walk away feeling supported and armed with a few new strategies.

C A S S W A L T O N Facilitator/Mental Health Practitioner/Mom “Some days you are gonna lose your crap; and that is just true. And some days you are going to be a super star and people will look at you and say, “Wow! You are doing such a great job!” Neither of those days are more important than the other, as long as you are always coming from a place of love.” |

M A R I M O X L E Y Facilitator/Social Worker/Digital Story-Teller "What my experience on this Earth has taught me is that people want to be valued. People want to believe that their life is valuable. If you—like me—believe this to be an immutable truth, I argue that we have an obligation that follows suit: We should respect that everyone’s voice is also valuable." |
