In 2011, Be a Part of the Conversation originated as an initiative in the Hatboro-Horsham School District. We are grateful that HHSD had remained a Community Partner as we have grown throughout the region!

“Less Worry, More Joy! Positive Parenting Strategies to Help Manage Anxiety and Worry” with Katherine Dahlsgaard, PhDn took place virtually on October 20, 2020

Dr. Dahlsgaard discussed and modeled specific, evidence-based strategies to help our children (and us!) manage chronic anxiety and stress, including as it relates to COVID-19, as well as outlining common pitfalls to avoid.

Following up on our May 11, 2021 online program: “Parenting On Your Feet”

What are the challenges you are facing as Hatboro-Horsham parents, caregivers and educators? Our presenters addressed the potency of today’s cannabis, other substances, impaired driving, and more, with a special focus on teens and emerging adults.

“Mock Teen Bedroom”

We also provided a tour of our Mock Teen Bedroom, which helps adults to identify signs of substance use, and trends that put kids at risk, such as cannabis, vaping and alcohol.

Following up on our April 20, 2021 online program: “Preparing Your Child to Launch!”

Whether our kids are just starting high school, planning for college, searching for their first job, or struggling to determine their next steps in life, we may find ourselves teetering on the parenthood fence. Are we still their caregiver? Their disciplinarian? Their problem solver? What are our boundaries? Can we see the line between being supportive and loving, and being the rescuer/protector? How does that change once they attend college or leave home?
