Engaged, Competent & Fulfilled: Raising Empowered Kids in a Culture of Anxiety

Make Time for a Conversation that Matters.
Join the Safe Community Coalition for an evening with bestselling author and educator Jessica Lahey. Through engaging stories and research-backed insights, Jessica will share practical strategies to help parents and caregivers foster independence, resilience, and stronger family connections—while helping young people navigate anxiety, substance use, gambling, and other potentially harmful behaviors. Parents, caregivers, and students will leave informed, inspired, and equipped with tools they can put into practice immediately. A Q&A, book sale and author signing will immediately follow the talk.
