In partnership with Dufferin Child and Family Services (DCAFS), Family Transition Place proudly presents an Online Mental Wellness Workshop for youth ages 10-13 via Zoom.

Motivated by the increased need for youth mental health support during the pandemic, the Optimist Club of Orangeville has generously funded the promotion and production of this inaugural workshop.

FTP's Youth Educators and representatives from Children's Mental Health – DCAFS will guide participants through the difference between mental wellness and mental health; exploring the stigma associated with mental health. Participants will also be provided self-care strategies and community referrals so that they can feel supported around this issue. The information and activities chosen for this workshop are presented in a multi-media format utilizing interactive games. The workshop will be both informative and fun and we look forward to working with the participants.

This workshop will begin on Wednesday, June 24, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. A link to attend this virtual workshop will be sent to you via email upon registration. We request a maximum of two children per device.

We want to ensure that they are making a difference, and will ask our workshop participants to complete a brief online survey to be sent out after the workshop.

REGISTRATION WILL CLOSE ON TUESDAY, JUNE 23, 2020.
