We are excited to partner with Mrs. Emily Weeks to support our students’ social and emotional growth at Dare to Be Different! 💛
Emily is a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She has experience providing school-based counseling to children in grades K–12 and working with children, adolescents, and adults in private practice in Jonesville. She is passionate about helping others navigate life’s challenges and develop the tools they need to thrive.
Through her Social-Emotional Skills Curriculum, students will participate in supportive, age-appropriate activities and meaningful conversations that help them:
* Understand and manage their emotions.
* Communicate effectively and build healthy relationships.
* Make positive choices and solve problems.
* Develop coping skills, empathy, and resilience.
* Face everyday challenges with confidence.
At DTBD, we are more than an afterschool program—we are a mentorship organization committed to helping children grow academically, socially, and emotionally.
Please join us in welcoming Mrs. Emily! We look forward to the positive impact this partnership will have on our students and families.
