On Saturday, March 1, 2025, the LWPTSA Council’s Family and Community Engagement team sponsored a powerful workshop, Transformative Parenting, to provide parents and caregivers tools and tips to empower their elementary, middle and high schoolers through their toughest challenges.
The event featured a keynote on how to help kids build resilience by identifying stress and coping mechanisms. The concurrent breakout workshops covered topics on brain development, effective communication, and navigating teens’ social and online worlds. The event concluded with a workshop on how to support the mental health and well-being of LGBTQ+ youth.
LWPTSA Council wishes to thank our event partners — Deborah Sleeman, the PEPS organization, and PEPS speakers Jamie Elzea, Paulina Cuevas Vega and Gloria Martinez — and all community members who attended the workshop.
