Community Seminar: 
This seminar is for parents, care-givers, grandparents... Well anyone who knows that this topic is a real challenge, and wants to move forward in helping youth & their loved ones. The evening will feature several speakers who will (in their allotted time) present topics on...
  • What is general well-being?
  • What are the risks, causal factors, warning signs & symptoms?
  • What & where can I get help?
  • When should I get help?
  • How & what to anticipate?
  • What helps, whats questions to ask?
  • How to make connections?
  • The reality of the situation in NZ

One of our speakers is Michael Hempseed. Click here to hear one of his presentations on Ted Talks. 

The evening will conclude with an opportunity for you to ask questions of the presenters in a question and response time (Q'n'R). We called it Q'n'R rather than Q'n'A because there are no easy answers.  The evening will conclude with supper at 9.15pm.
