Dessert Discussion: Feelings, Social Media, & Ice Cream
Join our friends from Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School for a workshop on feelings and mental health, social media, and how these topics are related. Learn some strategies for navigating tough feelings or difficult friend (or frenemy) situations, and wrap up with a plan for how you can use social media while staying safe and grounded.
Ohhh!!! And enjoy some ice cream while we chat, because what makes an awkward conversation easier than having a frozen dessert to literally "break the ice" with?
For tweens and teens in 3rd grade and up.
