Support Your Child’s Mental Health

Federation initiative BeWell Miami is offering two unique parent workshops during Mental Health Awareness month, recognized annually during the month of May, to spread awareness and create conversations around this critical topic. Mental health experts from our community will be presenting and facilitating discussions around the topic of “Building Your Parent Toolbox: Learning to Support Your Child’s Wellbeing in Adolescence and Beyond.” There are two opportunities to attend: Monday, May 1 at Beth Torah Benny Rok Campus in North Miami Beach at 7:30 p.m., with Dr. Jessica Dahan, Clinical Supervisor from Jewish Community Services of South Florida and on Monday, May 8 at 7 p.m. at Temple Beth Am in Pinecrest with Dr. Amy Boyers, Clinical Psychologist.
