These seminars are open to all families and are especially important for parents, guardians and caregivers of children ages 0-12, according to Metro Health.

The goal of the seminars is to provide citizens with concrete information for answering children’s hard questions, helping to make sense of their reactions as well as helping children reduce stress.

There will be two virtual sessions this week:

A call-in option will also be available for each session.

The free seminars are part of Metro Health’s Triple P Positive Parenting Program, which supports families and helps them navigate their individual needs.

“Parents are the first to teach about healthy relationships, set boundaries, and learn how to recognize our emotions,” according to the Triple P website.
