Program Description

Event Details

Are you a parent of a child 3-18 who has concerns about your child but you’re not sure about where to go for help?  This workshop is for you!  Is your child struggling in school?  Has your child lost interest in activities they used to enjoy? Are you worried about their emotional health?  Do you have concerns that your child might be making poor health choices?

The Suffolk County Prevention Workgroup, a project of the Suffolk County Department of Health, will be presenting a free, one-hour workshop on how to access services and support if you believe your child requires additional help in school, if your child is showing signs of struggling emotionally, or if you suspect your child is experimenting with alcohol or drugs. This presentation will provide you with contact information for agencies that can provide parents free or low-cost education and support and help you with next steps in getting your child the support that they need to thrive.  Resources will be given regarding youth struggling with or experiencing developmental disabilities, mental health challenges and substance use. Free, open to all.
