- Included in the mental health series is a "Watch Together Series" to highlight for families. While the Mental Health Series is designed for parents, these “Watch Together” events are for the whole family, especially teens and young adults. In this series, each month, you'll meet a new animated character facing real challenges that teens and young adults experience. Together, you and your family can watch their story and learn how to start meaningful conversations at home.
- November Event: Together, teens and parents will watch the animated story about Kyle. Kyle is a teen masking the pain of bullying, withdrawal, and alcohol use. His story helps families understand the hidden emotional impact of bullying and the importance of asking direct, compassionate questions like, “Have you thought about taking your life?” In this interactive session, parents and teens will learn about warning signs of emotional distress and how to create space for honest conversation and connection.
