MENTAL HEALTH and wellness HUB

During this stressful and uncertain time, it is essential to address and tend to the mental health and wellness of ourselves, our family, and community. Below you will find a variety of resources to support you and your family members.

may FOCUS: screen time & technology

Too much screen time is an easy trap for kids and families to fall into. While the need to set limits may be obvious, it can be hard to do.

Join Jeffco Public Schools as we explore all the ways to reduce our screen time and create boundaries around technology-use during the month of May. Make time to use the weekly resources and activities to make it easier!
