Needles USD and the River Consortium will offer another series of parent workshops starting Wednesday, March 23rd at 6:00 pm on zoom.
Topics are essential for parents to better understand their children, the school process and ways to provide support.
The series starts with "3 Tips to Reduce Stress and Anxiety for Busy Families" presented by Karrie Brazaski, an advocate for emotional well-being. As a nurse of three-decades and a mom, she has seen stress, anxiety and burnout destroy professions, relationships, confidence and an individual’s self-worth. After severely burning out and leaving her corporate healthcare position due to a lack of support and resources, Karrie has made it her mission to help others prioritize wellbeing, especially for today’s youth.
