Mokita® Dialogues - Bullying
2021-10-28 11:00 - 12:00 UTC | Zoom
Let’s Talk… For A Change
Held the fourth Thursday of every month through zoom, these brown bag discussions not only highlight topics of vital interest – elephants in the room – but provides opportunities for follow-up and action.
Each Mokita® Dialogue session, led by a different facilitator from through the community, includes a brief presentation, engaging activities that encourage thought and conversation, and suggestions for ways to continue the discussion.
Join us to learn, to listen, and to be engaged in finding solutions for these important issues. It is time to come together to acknowledge the ‘elephants’ that exist across our community and how we can address them.

QPR
2021-11-11 09:00 - 10:30
QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer — the 3 simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide.
Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone to help. Each year thousands of Americans, like you, are saying “Yes” to saving the life of a friend, colleague, sibling, or neighbor.

The Straight Talk Task Force is made up of representatives from the Jana Marie Foundation, Youth Service Bureau, Communities That Care Partnership, and State College Area School District administration, faculty, and staff.

The mission of the Straight Talk Task Force: We strive to raise our children to become strong, confident, happy adults. The Straight Talk Series offers educational programs that help parents, caregivers, and community members to recognize, understand, and deal with potential problems that can surface during developmental years. Be proactive. Learn the warning signs. Learn how to help our children before the problem negatively impacts them, their schoolwork, and their relationships.
