Mentor Circle: Basics of Youth Mental Health
June Mentor Circle: Understanding the Basics of Youth Mental Health
Mentoring can be a critical support to a young person who experiences challenges with their mental health and well-being. This is especially true during adolescence, a crucial period for developing and maintaining healthy habits. Some young people are at greater risk of mental health conditions due to their living conditions, stigma, discrimination or exclusion, or lack of access to quality support and services. A supportive adult presence – that allows for a shared connection and vulnerability – contributes to positive growth and adaptation, especially during a pandemic.
Come and learn how to promote resiliency among young people in this virtual training.
Join us for a brand new offering from Mass Mentoring Partnership: Mentor Circles will run every third Thursday evening of most months (dates will be adjusted if holidays interfere.) Mentor Circles are virtual, off-hours opportunities to connect with other mentors, build knowledge, and practice skills related to being the best mentor you can be. Topics will vary. You are welcome as often as you can join us.
