"Thriving in Transition: Mental Wellness from High School to College"

The NCHS PFA, in partnership with New Canaan CARES, invites you to attend "Thriving in Transition: Mental Wellness from High School to College" at 7:00 PM on March 11 in the NCHS Auditorium.

Appropriate for families of all high school students, and students are welcome to attend! Dr. James Geisler, Executive Director of Wellness Services at Sacred Heart University, will lead a discussion on how families can proactively support their students' mental health during high school and the transition to college including: 

• Identifying key factors contributing to rising college student stress
• Better understanding mental health challenges and limited campus resources
• Learning a practical framework to help manage these challenges
• Gaining tools to build coping skills before difficulties arise

Dr. Geislers's work emphasises proactive development of healthy coping strategies rather than waiting until a crisis occurs. His workbook, Thrive Year One, will be available for purchase at the event. No registration is necessary!
