Anxiety is at epidemic levels among children and teens.

Teens Talk Transition Workshop
Oct 19, 2019 @ 10:00 AM - Noon
Alberta Children's Hospital
Teens Talk Transition is a free 3-week program designed to support teens with a long term health condition in learning medical management and advocacy skills. This program aims to help teens learn to balance priorities, set goals, create action plans, develop problem-solving skills and communicate effectively with both their healthcare team and personal supports.

This program was created in partnership with youth and young adults to be suitable for teens aged 14 to 18 years who are living with one or more long term health conditions. Teens are encouraged to bring a similarly-aged peer for support
(i.e., sibling, friend, cousin).

A simultaneous workshop will be held for parents at the same location so they can support their children in developing medical management and advocacy skills.

Teens Talk Transition will be held on 3 consecutive Saturdays – October 19, 2019 to November 2, 2019 from 10:00 a.m. to noon. at Alberta Children’s Hospital.

For more information or to register contact Deb Thul at 403-955-7252.

Good quality sleep is a positive factor in healthy development of children and adolescents.

Yet, evidence suggests that many kids do not get enough sleep.
This presentation will focus on the importance of sleep for school aged children and teens, common signs and causes of sleep deprivation, and effective solutions for improving sleep.
