FYI Parent Support Groups

What are the FYI Parent Support Groups?

The Parents Support Groups are a virtual space for parents/caregivers to come together to provide peer emotional support to one another. Groups are established around parent interests and topics parents bring up on the Family Support Line. A FYIdaho staff is always present to add structure to the conversation, but parents/caregivers provide the topics and resources they would like to share. Parents/caregivers can expect to meet others who share similar experiences and to find comfort in meeting others who understand their challenging journey.

    Children’s Mental Health Awareness Week is held every year during the first week of May (National Mental Health Awareness Month) — is a national campaign that raises awareness and funds to promote better mental health for children.

    PhotoVoice is a method of research where participants develop prompts and take photographs to represent their responses to the prompts. With support from students at the College of Idaho, FYIdaho teens developed prompts about youth mental health. Teens across Idaho submitted photos.

    The Boise Brick House is hosting a PhotoVoice gallery on Tuesday, May 11th between 2:45-5:30pm. Teens, families, teachers, and community partners are invited to appreciate their art! Flying M cookies and Lemon Tree lemonade will be provided. 🙂
