As the school year draws to a close, families are preparing for the shift from the structure of classes to the more unstructured days of summer. This transition can be challenging for both children and parents, leading to an increase in mental health issues, according to a study published in the Journal of the Canadian Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.
To support families during this period of change, Pecantown Books and Brews in Seguin is hosting a free mental health fair on Saturday, May 25 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event will feature counselors from Ray of Hope Associates Counseling Center who will provide strategies for coping with stress and navigating the challenges of summer break.
This mental health fair is a valuable resource for those in need of support, aligning with Mental Health Awareness Month. It aims to provide families with valuable resources to help them have a healthy and positive start to their summer break.
For more information about this free event, visit the Pecantown Books and Brews website. Support is available for those who may be struggling with their mental health, making it a step towards helping families navigate this challenging time of year.
