ONLINE, (Oct 1st, 2023, Rabiʻ Awaal 16th, 1445) Navigating the challenges of raising teenagers is no easy journey, and when you add the complexities of mental health, it can become overwhelming. As an organization dedicated to youth development and leadership education, we've witnessed the silent struggles that impact young minds and we understand the concerns that parents have about their teens. Recently, we embarked on a journey of understanding and empowerment in our webinar, "5 Actions to Mitigate Teen Depression," and we're here to share the post-event reflections with you, our dedicated parents.

As parents, it's crucial to approach this issue with vigilance, being attuned to potential trigger signs and equipped with the necessary tools to guide our teens through these challenging times.
