As the pandemic ravages on, COVID fatigue not only affects adults but children equally too. The health and well-being of our children should continue to be surveilled and assured. While caring for ourselves, how do we ensure the social-emotional needs of our children are continuously being met? What are some of the signs and symptoms of their struggles to look out for and how do we support them?

In this workshop, we will explore the different social-emotional needs of our children in this ever-changing environment. We will also learn how to identify and address some of their challenges and setbacks to help strengthen their resiliency.

This session will be hosted by:
