One Brain at a Time: How BeWellATL Events Are Redefining the Mental Health Conversation

JF&CS’ BeWellATL initiative continues to support the mental health of Atlanta’s teens, adolescents, and their families through a growing series of thoughtfully curated, no-cost events. The refreshingly real workshops dismantle stigma and encourage open dialogue while offering practical tools for families. From fostering resilience and reframing failure to addressing the difficult topic of teen suicide, recent workshops have left a deep and lasting impact on those who attended. With the next event focused on neurodiversity approaching, the momentum behind this initiative continues to build.

Coming Up: Understanding Neurodiversity

On May 13, BeWellATL will continue its community education effort with a new event, Shifting Perspectives: Understanding Neurodiversity, featuring Jenna Sommer, M.A., CCC-SLP, Neurodiverse Inclusion Specialist. With more than a decade of experience guiding parents, educators, and organizations, Sommer will bring her expertise in how diverse brains function, learn, and flourish.

This session will explore the fundamentals of neurodiversity, broaden understanding of the neurodivergent spectrum, and please read more here.
