QPI Webcast: "The Power of Connection: How Resource Families Can Support Adolescents Through COVID-19 Crisis"

We’re happy to announce the launch of our QPI resource series, COVID-19: The New Normal. Our first webcast is The Power of Connection: How Resource Families Can Support Adolescents Through COVID-19 Crisis. In this 75-minute event, tune in for a conversation between national adolescent development expert Dr. Ken Ginsburg, MD, MSEd, Co-Director of the Center for Parent and Teen Communication at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, and Jennifer Rodriguez, Executive Director of the Youth Law Center. Dr. Ginsburg will be sharing the science behind why resource and foster families are so important to adolescents during this national crisis, and practical tips and guidance for the best ways resource families (and all families) can support youth in foster care right now to weather this challenge and thrive. If you are looking for practice tips to help adolescents right now, like this stress management plan for teens, join QPI on this webcast! 

Join us for the conversation between Dr. Ginsburg and Jennifer, followed by a brief question and answer period with Jennifer. Feel free to send questions in advance. The webcast will be held Tuesday, March 31st at 11 am Pacific / 1 pm Central / 2 pm Eastern. Please register for the event here.
