Grandchildren, or children being raised by grandparents, or children in foster care in third through sixth grade are invited to participate in a free interACTive workshop. Grandparents and foster parents are also invited to participate! The workshop functions to improve positive mental health for both grandchildren and grandparents/foster parents. This interACTive workshop will promote emotional and social wellbeing by improving the emotional control skills, decision-making skills, and positive attitudes necessary for fulfilling and contributing lives. Grandparents/foster parents and grandchildren/children will be given resources, support, and practical tips for life skills needed to create and discover rewarding relationships.

The online workshop includes short videos and group discussions. Participants will complete six virtual face-to-face sessions and six self-paced sessions.

Instructor: The interACTive workshop is being hosted by Iowa State University Extension and Outreach.
