Parent University: Seasonal Depression

Please join us on Thursday, November 20th, at 6 pm for our Parent University Webinar being presented by Mr. Terrance Randolph, an Outreach Coordinator with NAMI Piedmont.

The webinar is about Seasonal Depression.

This presentation explores the impact of seasonal depression and its connection to mental health awareness, su***de prevention, and coping with grief. Participants will gain insight into how changes in seasons can affect mood, energy, and emotional well-being. This session will emphasize the importance of recognizing warning signs of depression, supporting loved ones who may be struggling, and accessing community and professional resources.

Through open discussion and practical strategies, we’ll explore healthy coping mechanisms, self-care techniques, and ways to foster resilience during difficult times. Special attention will be given to the role of grief and loss in seasonal emotional challenges, and how empathy and awareness can help create a supportive, stigma-free environment.

Learn how to recognize symptoms early, promote mental wellness, and be part of the movement toward hope, understanding, and su***de prevention.

Please use the Zoom link below to join. If you have trouble joining via Zoom, please view the presentation on our Chester County ECHO Coalitions page Live feature.
