This program is a part of our #YouthCulture Spring Workshop Series. The Poe Center’s #YouthCulture series is designed to empower parents and guardians by providing insight into the environment and culture around our youth. These workshops explore how the developing adolescent brain shapes perceptions and behavior. All participants will receive a free packet of supportive materials and resources. Covered topics will include substance use, Internet safety, sexting, and healthy dating relationships. In addition, we will explore ways to enhance parent-child communication.
