A Community Effort
Social and Emotional Learning was discussed in depth by a panel of experts and members of the East Greenwich community. Those in attendance heard of challenges, solutions, and possible future endeavors.
Special thanks go to the Kent County Prevention Coalition and all of those who took part in this important discussion. We will be continuing our series by examining the impact Social Media has on our young people, August 23rd, from 6:00-7:30 PM at the East Greenwich Library.
Stress, anxiety, depression and loneliness are all conditions that have increasingly impacted young people. All to often substance use/misuse is seen as a possible solution–leading to additional issues.
Please stay tuned for more information about upcoming programs. We have many talented and committed residents willing to be part of the solution. See you soon - Bob
See you soon,
