CONTINUE THE CONVERSATION

Wednesday, April 24th from 7:00-8:15 pm at Hinsdale Public Library.

Continue the conversation about anxiety in our youth as highlighted in the documentary Angst: Raising Awareness around Anxiety with Cara Hurley, PhD and Alisa Messana, LCSW. The increase and prevalence of anxiety disorders in our children and adolescents is concerning and can be overwhelming at times. Come with questions and examples as we consider anxiety’s causes, impact and what to do about it. Attendance at a screening is not required to participate.

Register here.

The PTO would like to thank Rose Egbert, Elizabeth Danielides and Liz Song for their hard work and creativity chairing the mother daughter brunch. The event was absolutely beautiful.
