As you and your teen prepare for going back to school 🏫, consider what actions you and your family 👪can take to protect their mental health 🧠. Reducing the time teens spend on social media 🤳can be difficult. It can be beneficial to provide and encourage interesting alternatives to scrolling. Be a role model whenever possible to show reduced 📉 phone use and participation in other activities.

Trailways Counseling is sponsoring the purchase of copies of We Will Always Be Here by Jenny Kalvaitis and Kristen Whitson, published by the Wisconsin Historical Society Press. These books will be distributed to event attendees at Pride Night at Henry Vilas Zoo, in place of direct sales, ensuring free access for all participants. This sponsorship is especially meaningful as the book documents the vital contributions and resilience of LGBTQ+ people in Wisconsin history, providing an essential connection to identity, community, and pride.

Understanding LGBTQ+ history is closely tied to mental health and well-being, particularly for teens, as it fosters a sense of belonging, validates lived experiences, and combats isolation. By supporting this initiative, Trailways Counseling is helping to make critical resources accessible, contributing to a safer and more affirming environment for all attendees.

See you at the zoo!
