Event Location
British Columbia: Virtual

Every month, FamilySmart hosts online events for parents & caregivers who are parenting a child or youth with a mental health and/or substance use challenge called "in the know." Watch a video and share experiences and strategies that help in the hard moments and focus on strengthening our understanding and connection with our kids.

Mental Health and Preparing for the Transition to Post Secondary

After high school, post-secondary education for our youth can be exciting but also stressful if they have struggled with their mental health. You’re not alone. Discover some ways we can prepare our youth for school, and support their mental health and independence while they are at school.

Learn from Dawn Schell from the University of Victoria and Melissa Feddersen from the University of British Columbia (Okanagan).

Join us to watch a video presentation together and stay for a facilitated conversation by our Family Peer Support Workers.
