Hope & Help Education Series:  As a parent, it is difficult at times to recognize the difference between the typical problems teens have while growing up verses the more serious ones. These Hope & Help events will empower parents and youth to talk about suicide and depression in productive, meaningful ways and how to find resources. Hear from physicians, suicide prevention specialists, law enforcement leaders and family members who are survivors of youth suicide.  

During these interactive sessions, parents and students alike will learn how they can help normalize conversations about suicide prevention, how to find resources in our community that support youth and adults through stressful times, and how to help our children navigate current entertainment in ways that facilitate increased parent-child communication.
