BeWell Miami Presents Second Annual Jewish Community Youth Mental Health Summit

The mental health and wellbeing of our nation’s youth is at a critical point, especially for Jewish teens as they navigate ongoing geopolitical conflicts and increasingly prevalent antisemitism. BeWell Miami is bringing the Jewish community together to address these important issues on Sunday, March 16. The Second Annual Jewish Community Youth Mental Health Summit: Unmasking the Path to Understanding welcomes parents, teachers, behavioral health professionals and anyone who works with and cares about teens and young adults. Participants will come together for a day of resilience-building, gaining insights from leading experts who will share valuable tools and best practices for supporting youth mental health. Featuring a keynote by Dr. Lisa Miller, a New York Times bestselling author, the event will take place at Federation Headquarters from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Registration, which includes a kosher lunch and continuing education units for teachers and mental health professionals, is $36 until March 6 and $54 thereafter.
