Academic Pressures & How to Talk to Your Teens

Date: Sunday, February 9
Time: 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm (EST)
Whippany*

Being a teen is hard. Teens face unique challenges like intense academic and social pressures, layered with the physical and emotional changes of adolescence. These years are ones marked by both vulnerability and opportunity. Having the tools to manage stress and build resilience is critical to promoting overall well-being and healthy development during these formative years.

Academic Pressures & How to Talk to Your Teens – Moving Past the “It was fine.” is a session that will provide parents with knowledge and practical tools to support their teens through these stressful times as well as tips on how to communicate and connect with them effectively.

Security at Federation Events

The Gloria and Jesse Weissberg Community Security Initiative (CSI) is coordinating all security with local, county, and state law enforcement. At every Federation event, all available resources are utilized to ensure your safety. Important items of note:

  • Bag policy: Backpacks, luggage, and large purses are not permitted at events. We encourage you not to bring a bag, if possible, or to bring a very small bag. All bags may be subject to search.
  • Additional security measures: Additional security procedures may be implemented (e.g. metal detectors) as needed.
  • Social media protocol: We ask you not to share the location of a Federation event prior to or during the event and to refrain from posting about a Federation activity until after it has ended, and the site is clear of attendees.

Building an inclusive community is a priority. Please email [email protected] to let us know if you require an accommodation to meaningfully participate in an event. One of our Federation professionals will reach out to you to learn more.
