ISSUE #56: Tuesday September 6, 2011 -- Announcement

Making Sense of Adolescence
An evening lecture
with Dr. Deborah MacNamara 


Who should attend?
Parents, teachers, counselors and family members of children from birth to adolescents.
Crossing the bridge from childhood to adulthood has never been so daunting. The time of adolescence is longer than ever and yet society today offers little support in understanding or facilitating this transition. What is meant to happen? What is nature's purpose and design? Discussion will centre on understanding the maturing dynamics occurring for the adolescent and how to help them through this journey.
