Wellness Corner: Supporting Teens in Uncertain Times

This newsletter is now in its fourth installment, and we’ve received much positive feedback about the role it has played in enhancing our communication and connection with a vital part of the BBYO family—you, our parents. During this time of uncertainty brought on by the spread of COVID-19, I’m grateful to have this platform through which to directly reaffirm the commitment we have—and have always had—to put the safety, health, and well-being of our teens above all else. We’ve set up a response page with information about local events, summer programs, and best practices and we invite you to take a look and reach out to us with any additional questions.

We’re also thinking more broadly about how we can partner with you to help support your teen through the worry that can be brought on by this climate. To that end, check out the Wellness Corner section below, where our wellness staff have shared valuable and practical tips for helping your teen (and you) cope emotionally, and even channel this challenge into a growth opportunity.
