Introducing a communication workshop series where teens and their parents explore, connect and create together. TEENS: Does your parent sometimes drive you crazy? Do you feel they don’t understand you or your world? Do you feel like they don’t listen to you? PARENTS: Do you long for a stronger relationship with your teen? Do you wish you could talk and connect better with them? Do you worry about
them? Often when teens and their parents try to have conversations, they have a hard time actually hearing each other. Circumstances—things like job and financial stress, peer pressure, and a teen’s natural striving for independence—can make it tough, or seemingly impossible, to communicate. It’s often too easy to make each other “the bad guy”. The Who2Be Workshop Series creates a safe, engaging environment where teens and their parents TOGETHER gain valuable insights about themselves and each other, and practice new ways of listening and communicating. This innovative series consists of three two-hour online sessions with multiple families, held over a period of three weeks. In each workshop, every participant has the chance to express themselves, ask questions and be heard. Interactive discussions take place across the entire group as well as in smaller, more intimate breakout sessions where each individual is encouraged to participate.
