Transition Year Parents Workshop & Discussion Group
For Parents wanting to become more equipped to support their kids during these big transition years and get more support for their own well-being.
There are certain years of a child's life that are truly a big transition. Going to a new school, coming into their adolescent self and navigating new feelings, emotions, and social connections is tough. And more so tough on us parents, as no one gave us any tools or education on how to be a parent let alone for these new challenges. And so we created a special series to support parents during these times.
Petaluma School District has partnered with the Society for Social Health & Well-being to offer a monthly series of Social-Emotional Health Workshops and Parent Discussion Groups to provide more support, opportunities to grow as parents (and people) and foster a greater sense of community. Each month we will have a theme such as:
Managing the Screen & Digital Well-being or
Fostering Health Social Connections for Kids or
New Communication Tools to engage your kids in ways they want to connect
We will have a local expert provide educational material, hands-on practice and then open discussion groups and support circles for parents to share their challenges and their triumphs so we can all learn and grow together.
This is a wonderful way for you as a parent to get resourced, feel supported by other parents and begin to grow your community of parents you can connect with for years to come. We all have room to grow as people and parents and as we grow so will our children benefit from our growth, our capacity to be the best parent and role model and they will feel safe, heard and confident to move into this new phase of their emerging adult lives.
If nothing else, come join us for the love of your kids. Even if life feels a bit too busy or being part of group events is not your thing. You will really enjoy this 90 minutes together. Most say it's life changing.
