Beacon Falls Public Library to host webinar on talking to kids about COVID-19



"Join us for an interactive webinar that addresses the challenges that children and teens face due to the changes caused by COVID-19.
"The webinar will tackle the challenges of helping children of various ages understand the recent changes in our lives, the potential health issues of COVID-19, and the reasons for health and social distancing restrictions.

"Half of the program will focus on suggestions for explaining these things to children, from preschoolers to teens, with ideas for eliciting cooperation and being sensitive to the kids' needs and feelings. We will then open up the program for questions and sharing of ideas, so we can learn from our collective experiences and help one another.
"We are all in this together, and together we will get through it.


"Hosts will be Liz Setaro, Library Director, and Dr. Barbara Berkowitz, retired psychologist, who previously provided the webinar, "Choosing Light in a Dark Time, for the library on May 28.

"The Zoom meeting link and password will be emailed to registered attendees prior to the meeting."
