Description
In Preparing Families for Raising Grandchildren from Diverse Generational Lenses, Part 1, we will discuss the challenges associated with balancing the needs of children while learning to understand new methods and systems. We will tackle tips to better understand the role Covid-19 has played on the mental health of children while learning to establish effective routines to balance the needs of the family. Special focus will be given to recognizing the impact of being a multi-generational family unit and how this can affect outcomes for families. Handouts and resources will be shared.

- Identify ways Covid-19 has impacted families across diverse areas
- Highlight the importance of mental health for others and yourself
