As educators and youth professionals, we want to best support the young people in our environments. This workshop will provide participants with an opportunity to engage in conversation about why mental wellness is important in a Jewish context, spending time brainstorming intentional ways to build relationships with each other and the young people with whom they engage. Participants will learn about the different ways in which to observe youth and who to go to for support when needed. The hope is that through increased dialogue and better understanding, the conversation about mental health and wellness will become normalized. For more information about the program, contact Rebecca Wanatick, rwanatick@jfedgmw.org or (973) 929-3129.
