Virtual: BLM in the Asian Community: Creating a Safe Space for Discussing Difficult Topics Intergenerationally

During this event, we will look at the issue of Black Lives Matter through the lens of multiple generations of Asian-Americans. Dr. Yuen will facilitate a conversation between an Asian young adult and parent on their views of BLM. This event is not intended to provide solutions but a supportive space and methods for more empathetic child-parent communication about difficult topics intergenerationally. Join us for mental wellness information, check in and discussion.

VIRTUAL: The Science of Well Being with Laurie Santos

The most popular course in the more than three-century history of Yale, “The Science of Well Being” highlights research that reveals misconceptions about what makes us happy — and the concrete steps we can take to live a more fulfilling life. Yale Professor Laurie Santos has taken this course and created a new version specifically for high school aged youth. Join us for a conversation about how youth (and youth workers) can improve their mental and physical health.

VIRTUAL: Just Breathe: Resilience Strategies for Today’s Youth & Youth Workers with Jannah Scott

In the first six months of 2020, today’s children and youth have lived through so many soul-provoking experiences. With the advent of COVID-19 illness and death, quarantines, school closures, summers on hold, graphic depictions of violence, the prospect of not going back to school or going back in a socially distanced fashion, and difficult imagery and discussion around issues of race and justice, youth have a lot of questions—and some even have deep concerns and fears.
