UPDATE: This event was a great success and was well attended! It was a hot day but the children were engaged in the activities and parents were educated on identifying signs and symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression. We hope everyone walked away from this event with helpful information. You can see from the picture above that our team enjoyed engaging and help raising awareness about wellness.

On Sunday May 22nd from 11am-1pm, Bergen's Promise & The Fusion Muslim Community Center have partnered to co-host a Youth Emotional Wellness Event. This is a great opportunity to familiarize Muslim families and the community about ways to identify signs and symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression among children.
There will be workshops for Parents hosted by Dr. Rania Awaad and a workshop for youth hosted by Naseem Obaydou. In addition, there will be outdoor activities for children and lunch.
This will be a fun yet information "Family Day" for all participants. This partnership is also crucial in ensuring that the Muslim community is aware of the many great resources available to them throughout Bergen County and how their children can achieve optimal wellness goals.
