PEN's CO Gives Day Celebration: Because Every Parent Deserves Support
2018-12-04 00:00 - 23:59
WE NEED YOUR HELP! PLEASE SUPPORT PEN ON COLORADO GIVES DAY!
PEN provides parent education and support to thousands of parents around the issues parents worry about:

reducing substance use/abuse,
managing stress & anxiety,
raising kids in a digital age,
creating strong family-school partnerships, and
building resilient families.

HEAR WHAT OUR PARENTS SAY ABOUT PEN:
“Like many parents, I’ve had challenges. I have parented my children alone, and there were times when my legs shook with anxiety regarding my ability to do this. Other times I have felt judged for the challenges my children experienced. PEN hosted events that helped me to get through the really tough time. Events about things like overdose, teen pregnancy, mental illness, and suicide helped me to stand up without falling back down because I knew I was not alone. Thank you!”

Screenagers Documentary at Louisville Middle School

Screenagers Documentary at Louisville Middle School

November 15th @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm

This 67 minute film will have Spanish subtitles. There will be a question and answer time following the film with Spanish interpretation.
We are thrilled to present SCREENAGERS: Growing Up in the Digital Age, a documentary about the biggest parenting issue of our time.
Are you watching kids scroll through life, with their rapid-fire thumbs and a six-second attention span? Physician and filmmaker Delaney Ruston saw that happening with her own kids and began a quest to uncover how it might impact their development. As with her other two award-winning documentaries on mental health, Ruston takes a deeply personal approach as she probes into the vulnerable corners of family life, including her own, to explore struggles over social media, video games, academics and internet addiction. Through poignant, and unexpectedly funny stories, along with surprising insights from authors, psychologists, and brain scientists, SCREENAGERS reveals how tech time impacts kids’ development and also offers solutions on how adults can empower their kids to best navigate the digital world to find balance.
SCREENAGERS addresses the most pervasive parenting issue of our time head on—depicting teen struggles over social media, video games, and internet addiction. The film empowers kids to best navigate the digital world and provides practical resources to help them do it.

Smart Parenting in a World with Sexting - Centennial Middle School
2018-05-08 18:00 - 19:30
Sexting has become a common form of sexual expression and, unfortunately, it is also a tool for manipulation, exploitation and sexual assault. We know that middle and high school students are some of the most enthusiastic and vulnerable participants in this sexting environment.
To give you the tools to support your children in maintaining healthy and empowering relationships, Centennial Middle School is partnering Zonta Foothills Club of Boulder County to present “Smart Parenting in a World With Sexting”.
Join us for this informative panel and workshop designed to help you help your children, navigate the challenges of healthy relationships and interactions (sexual and otherwise). We will discuss the legal guidelines of consent with sexting and the related ramifications, and empower you with bystander intervention tools.
The evening will be co-facilitated by Prevention Educators at MESA (Moving to End Sexual Assault) and SPAN (Safehouse Progressive Alliance for Nonviolence) and the Boulder District Attorney’s Office.
WE RECOMMEND THAT YOUR CHILDREN NOT ATTEND THIS SESSION.
