Community Town Hall Focuses on Mental Health and Parenting
September 20, 2025 - 04:20
September is Suicide Awareness Month, a crucial time to address the alarming mental health challenges facing our youth. With suicide tragically standing as the second leading cause of death among children aged 10 to 14, the need for open dialogue has never been more pressing. In response to this urgent issue, the Momentum Center is organizing a Town Hall event centered on "Mental Health and Parenting."
This gathering aims to foster a supportive environment where parents, caregivers, and community members can come together to discuss the mental health struggles that children face today. Experts in the field will share insights on identifying warning signs, effective communication strategies, and resources available for families.
The event will provide a platform for attendees to voice their concerns, share personal experiences, and learn from one another. By promoting awareness and understanding, the Momentum Center hopes to empower families to take proactive steps in supporting their children's mental well-being.
