Virtual Teen Workshop – Singled Out: Racism & Your Mental Health

December 12 @ 4:30 pm - 5:30 pm

Our society is a “salad bowl” of different races.  Everyone looks differently and sometimes people get judged solely based off their appearances.  Being told negative things about oneself because of the color of their skin can have a deep impact on their mental well-being.  This workshop addresses racial imbalances that can occur in our environment and how to deal with racist encounters.  Additionally, it is just as important for all of us to learn to be better allies and protect each other as human beings.  Resources and self-help strategies are provided.

WHEN: December 12 , 2024
WHERE: Zoom
TIME: 4:30 PM – 5:30 PM
