Depression and anxiety are on the rise in today’s post-pandemic world. Children and adolescents are struggling with confidence, resilience, and a sense of security that all contribute to depression and anxiety.


Children and adolescents often turn to self-harming as coping strategies and then struggle with the additional challenges cutting, substance use, and unhealthy social media connections present as they try to manage their distress. 


This class explores the sources of these conditions and provides strategies for parents/caregivers to share and practice with their children to manage depression and anxiety.


MATFORCE is collaborating with Humboldt Unified School District to bring this FREE parent education program to the community.
