Past Event: Teens and Mental Health - Things Parents Need to Know about Alcohol, Cannabis, and Other Drugs

High school years and graduation can be a tumultuous time during a good year, let alone during a pandemic. Join us for a special virtual event to learn how to help successfully launch the teen in your life into adulthood.

On Tuesday, June 30 at 5:30pm, Dr. Jason Kilmer from the University of Washington will be joining the MIYFS team for a virtual event “Parenting Beyond (and During) High School: The Top Ten Things Parents Need to Know about Alcohol, Cannabis and Other Drugs.” Especially targeted to graduating senior students and their families, this presentation will be applicable to all youth and families in their teenage and young adult years.

Parents play an important role in helping young people healthfully launch into adulthood, and Dr. Jason Kilmer will share his research and experience at the University of Washington regarding specific steps families can take during this crucial transition.

If you have a specific question or concern you would like addressed in the presentation, please email rachel.montgomery@mercergov.org. These questions will be kept anonymous, and will be used to tailor this presentation to the Mercer Island community.
