Are the teen years the best years of our lives? At EMC, we’re not so sure about that. That’s why we’re hosting Equipping Teens for Life: A Health & Wellness Conference for Young People and Parents—a day full of compassion, connections and enlightenment on Saturday, April 8, 2017.
Headlining the event is Peggy Orenstein, New York Times best-selling author and Twin Cities native, who will share insights from her most recent book, Girls and Sex.
In addition, expert-led breakout sessions will include:
- Saying no to academic stress (teens & adults)
- Creating healthy relationships (teens)
- Talking to your teen about sex (adults)
- Dealing with depression (teens & adults)
- Managing your parents (teens)
- Understanding gender identity and LGBTQ issues (adults)
- Coping with grief (teens & adults)
- And more
Tickets are $10 per student and $40 per adult; boxed lunches will be provided. Register here; seating is limited, so register today. The event will take place at Edina Morningside Community Church, 4201 Morningside Road, Edina.
