Upcoming Web May-July

 


Raising and supporting kids today comes with challenges no one fully prepared us for. Social media, substance use, trauma - it’s a lot. And it’s hard to know the “right” thing to do when you see a young person struggling.

 

That's where our upcoming webinars come in. Whether you’re at home, in a classroom, or working in your community, these sessions are here to help - with real strategies, not scare tactics.

 

Parenting in an Addictive World: When to Step in & How to Help 

LIVE: May 6, 1:00 PM EST

 

Kids can get pulled into things like substances, pornography, and social media before they even understand what’s happening. Counselor and prevention expert Kriya Lendzion has helped thousands of families navigate these tough topics—and she’s been through it herself. You’ll walk away with practical ways to step in, set healthy boundaries, and keep trust intact.

Beyond 'Don't' Do It: Real Talk about Youth Substance Use & Intervention

LIVE: June 3, 12:30 PM EST

 

Why do kids take risks, even when they “know better”? Dr. Bonnie Halpern-Felsher from Stanford’s REACH Lab will share research-backed insights into what really influences youth behavior—and how we can support healthier choices without relying on fear or punishment.

 

Helping Youth Heal: Support Through Family Addiction, Trauma, & Stress

LIVE: July 8, 1:00 PM EST

 

When kids experience trauma—like addiction in the family—it can affect their emotional development and behavior. But healing is possible. Author Trish Luna will introduce gentle, evidence-based tools that help children build resilience, manage big feelings, and move forward with strength.

 

Each webinar is completely free, and if you register, you’ll receive a recording to watch on your own time. Plus, if you attend live, you’ll get a certificate of attendance.
