This webinar is free and open to the public via Zoom. Details on how to participate are outlined below.
The conversation will focus on the physical and mental impacts of living in these uncertain times and how we can best care for ourselves, our loved ones, and our community with simple strategies that help us build our resilience and connect to our community supports. This presentation is for any parent, teacher, health professional, and community member who is looking for strategies to deal with feelings of overwhelm, stress, and/or anxiety caused by the coronavirus pandemic and current climate of unrest.
