📣 Community Lecture | Breaking the Silence: Teen Mental Health | May 3
Teen mental health has become an increasingly important topic, yet many early warning signs can be subtle and easily overlooked. When facing internal struggles, teens may hesitate in silence. At the same time, parents may also have concerns about seeking help, treatment, or medication, potentially missing the valuable window for early intervention.
This lecture is the second session in the MIOT Community Seminar Series. In partnership with Purple Swans Corporation, which has long supported mental health advocacy, we are honored to invite three guest speakers to discuss the following topics with our community:
• How to recognize early warning signs
• How parents can help build children's resilience
• How to break the stigma and better understand treatment and medication
• When to seek professional help
🎤 Guest Speakers:
Clinical Psychologist Dr. Masami Araki
Child Psychiatrist Dr. Wilbert Yeung
Teen Mental Health Advocate Shilpa Kulkarni
📍 Time & Location:
Sunday, May 3, 10:00–11:30 AM
Millburn High School Cafeteria
