Life is busy. Here’s a chance to kick back, enjoy a (free!) delicious meal, and talk with other parents and kids about making the tween and teen years fun and successful.

 

How can parents and teens:

  • stay close and connected

  • talk about tough issues

  • prevent teen drinking and drug use

  • avoid and survive difficult times

  • support each other

  • connect with others

  • and have fun?

Both youth and parents will have a chance to speak out and be heard. A youth and parent panel will provide expert advice and share personal stories. Join us and make Missoula an even better place for kids and families.

 

This Town Hall is hosted by the Missoula Underage Substance Abuse Prevention team of the Missoula Forum for Children and Youth.
