Connecting for Solutions: Youth Making and Keeping Friends and Children’s Mental Health
June 19 @ 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
Teens’ ability to make and keep friends is important. The quality of teen friendships can predict physical and mental health in adulthood.
Join the Wisconsin Office of Children’s Mental Health as we bring people from across the state to share ideas and discuss the importance of youth friendships and how that relates to their mental health.
What you can expect in this convening:
- Learn why the ability to make and keep friends is critical to children’s mental health.
- Hear about student-led mental wellness programs.
- Learn from others – in small group discussions you’ll hear from others across the state about youth friendships.
- Meet others and network – connect with others and share best practices. Come ready to share!
This will be our final convening in our series, so don’t miss it! The response to our prior four convenings has been very positive. Attendees have appreciated both hearing from panelists who are having success in the topic area and the opportunity to learn from others across the state as to what they are seeing and doing.
These convenings are open to people and organizations in Wisconsin interested in children’s mental health.
