Waltham Partnership For Youth is partenering with Families for Depression Awareness to host the second event of WPY's Mental Wellness Series, "Celebrating You During the Holidays"!
The event will be held on December 9th from 7:00-9:00 PM.
From 7:00-8:00 PM, parents and teens will have seperate discussions on mental wellness and reducing stress.
For Adults: Teen Depression Workshop (Cafe): During this workshop, licensed mental health clinician, Rebekah Gibbons, LICSW, will help caring adults recognize depression in teens, communicate effectively, and help intervene constructively to improve teen wellness.
For Teens: Teen Speaker Event (Auditorium): During this workshop, our youth and young adult speakers will use their personal stories to reduce stigma around mental health issues, help teens notice signs and symptoms of depression and stress, and encourage young people to seek help.
We will then join all back together, parents and teens from 8:15-9:00 to discuss self-care techniques and create a self-care map to identify wellness activities and locations in Waltham!
Cheers to celebrating YOU this holiday and beyond! Register today!
