Description

Virtual House Calls for Parents and Families, Part 3: Protecting Our Youth - A Community Approach to Suicide Prevention

*This is a one (1) day event – Thursday, November 7, 2024 from 5:00pm – 6:00pm

Connecticut experienced 10 teen suicides over this summer. While it can be difficult to discuss, it is important for parents and caregivers to talk to their children about suicide and mental health.

The CSDE invites you to join our panel of experts from the Department of Children and Families (DCF) and the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) for a conversation with parents and caregivers. We will discuss warning signs to look for, tips on how to talk to your child about their feelings, stressors and well-being, and where to turn to get help for you and your child.
