After the success of the last three years, COLlive.com and Operation Survival, a department of the NCFJE, are once again partnering to host a virtual lecture series for parents and educators addressing important topics in the area of mental health.
The series entitled, “Preparing Your Kids For A Safe Summer Away From Home” will feature three events on three consecutive Tuesdays from May 10th through May 24h. The topics of peer pressure, abuse, building resiliency and homesickness will each be presented by a renowned expert in the field and introduced by a Chabad educator involved with providing community support in that area.
“We are pleased to offer a forum for discussing these issues that are prevalent among our children, with an eye on prevention and providing support,” says Yaacov Behrman, Director of Operation Survival.
The lectures will take place at 8:15pm on the following days: May 10th, May 17th, and May 24th, and can be viewed via Zoom, or through tuning in at COLlive.com
