This presentation by Linda Goldman, MS, FT, will provide needed tools for enabling professionals and all caring adults to recognize the stresses associated with environmental challenges and help young people externalize the impact of these challenges. By providing clear language for a meaningful dialogue, acknowledging children’s voices, separating fact from fiction about climate issues, encouraging participation in activities for the planet,  creating tools to reduce stress, highlighting inspirational role models and organizations — we can ultimately transform anxiety and grief and loss into hope, resilience, and a shared involvement with our children. This live webcast will be followed by a panel of community organizations, moderated by Louise Economides, PhD, MA.
