Helping Boys Thrive

By

Parenting pre-teen and teenage boys can be challenging. Boys are hesitant to communicate their feelings and can struggle with their mental health in silence. This virtual (on Zoom) and interactive workshop — designed and facilitated by Moving Traditions — will help give parents tools and guidance on how to open up lines of communication with their sons and support them through their teenage years.  The program will feature speakers from Moving Traditions, who will share some of the latest research around trends in adolescent boys.

Register below and receive a link to the program.

We would like to give a special thank you to all of the organizations that helped make this event possible:

  • The Epstein School
  • The Weber School
  • Davis Academy
  • Atlanta Jewish Academy
  • Jewish Family and Career Services
  • The Temple
  • Other Atlanta Area Synagogues
