SUMMARY:Discussions on Diversity and the (Added) Mental Health Impact of COVID
DESCRIPTION:This conversation has been postponed until Fall 2021\n  \nAs a country we strive for diversity\, equity\, and inclusion\, yet disparities and discrimination continue to be experienced by many and remain at the top of the news cycle. \nThe COVID-19 pandemic has coincided with an increase in hate crimes among Asian Americans\, rising race relation conflict\, and brought isolation to members of the LGBTQ community. \nPlease join us for a conversation with community leaders moderated by Rabbi Robin Nafshi (Bios below) to explore how we can encourage acceptance and understand. \n  \nThis event is free\, but registration is required \n  \nRabbi Robin Nafshi: Ordained by Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in 2005\, Robin has been the Rabbi at Temple Beth Jacob since July of 2010.

She moved from Maryland to Concord five years ago for her 8th grade year\, which she spent at Shaker Road School\, before attending SPS.

One of her favorite parts of living in Concord is the consistently short line at the local Chipotle. In addition to writing the occasional Letter to the Editor\, she also dances ballet and enjoys studying the Humanities. Victoria is also the daughter of two Chinese immigrants.

SUMMARY:What IS "trauma-informed care?"
DESCRIPTION:Addressing the role of adversity\, oppression\, and stigma in caring for our community with Dr. Cassie Yackley\nNew Hampshire is working to build a system of care for children’s mental health that is youth and family driven\, community based\, culturally and linguistically competent\, and trauma informed. But what does “trauma-informed” mean? SAMHSA describes six core principles of a trauma-informed approach which include: safety\, trustworthiness and transparency\, peer support\, collaboration and mutuality\, empowerment\, voice and choice\, and cultural\, historical\, and gender issues. These principles are closely interwoven with the values identified in NH’s system of care for children. This live webinar session invites participants to learn how adopting a trauma-informed lens allows us to see how experiences of adversity and stigma can impact a child’s and family’s mental health wellbeing. Participants will learn how to take “trauma-responsive” action in their community by adopting practices aimed at promoting equity\, wellness\, and post-traumatic growth with people and systems impacted by violence\, adversity\, and systemic oppression. \nThis event is FREE\, but registration is required \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:RAISING THE BAR: Mental Health Advocacy in the N.H. Legal System
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, states have required law students to answer questions about their mental health treatment before they can practice law. However\, a wave of support has been building to remove questions about mental health from what’s known as the character and fitness reviews of bar applicants. \nIn this discussion\, we will hear from Sofia Hyatt and Victoria Saxe\, two 3L UNH Law School students who successfully advocated to eliminate the mental health questions on the character and fitness portion of the NH Bar Exam. \nIn our conversation\, we will explore their advocacy efforts and the impact these discriminatory questions have on applicants and the diversity of the legal profession. \nThe panel will be moderated by New Futures’ CEO and President\, Michele Merritt and will also feature John Broderick\, Dartmouth-Hitchcock’s Sr. Director of External Affairs\, former Chief Justice of the NH Supreme Court\, and outspoken mental health advocate. \nThis event is FREE\, but registration is required.\nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Riverbend Reads: This Is How It Always Is
DESCRIPTION:Dinner and Book Discussion with author\, Laurie Frankel\nFunds raised from this event will support Riverbend’s Childrens Program \nIn recent years we’ve seen an increasing number of memoirs from transgender individuals and from parents forging uncharted waters in order to help their transgender children live happy\, healthy lives in a society that still largely defines gender by what’s in your pants. \nIn her novel This is How It Always Is Laurie Frankel takes those real-life experiences and puts them into a big-hearted story of family and secrets. Penn and Rosie are a close\, loving couple\, living in Madison\, Wisconsin with their five boys. But it becomes evident before long that their youngest\, Claude\, feels like he should have been born a girl. So how do these strong\, supportive parents go about helping their son live as the person he wants to be? It’s a fascinating thing to behold. The nuances and unforeseen pitfalls of trying to protect your child from fear and hate while nurturing a sense of acceptance is daunting. What is private and what is a secret\, and what is\, really\, nobody’s business? Sometimes secrets have a way of materializing in the blink of an eye or the span of an innocuous question\, and this novel is about the lengths we will go\, as parents and siblings\, to protect each other. \n

SUMMARY:Documentary: The Welcome
DESCRIPTION:The Welcome offers a fiercely intimate view of life after war: the fear\, anger and isolation of post-traumatic stress that affects vets and family members alike. As we join these vets in a small room for an unusual five day healing retreat\, we witness how the ruins of war can be transformed into the beauty of poetry. Here our perceptions are changed\, our psyches strained and our hearts broken. And at the end\, when this poetry is shared with a large civilian audience\, we begin to understand that all of us are a vital piece of the Welcome as Veterans try to find the way back home. Their examples of unflinching honesty\, courage and love lift us up\, inspiring all of us once again to feel our common humanity\, always the first casualty of war. \nTo learn more about the film\, visit: http://www.thewelcomethemovie.com/ \nThis event is free and open to the public\, but registration is required.

SUMMARY:Guardian of the Golden Gate Bridge
DESCRIPTION:Sergeant Kevin Briggs is a former California Highway Patrol officer who convinced hundreds of people who were contemplating suicide by jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge into coming back over the rail and giving life another chance. These challenging\, but rewarding efforts earned him the nickname “Guardian of the Golden Gate Bridge.” After a 23 year career with the California Highway Patrol\, Briggs retired to dedicate his life to promote mental health awareness around the country and across the world through Pivotal Points\, an organization he founded to promote Suicide Prevention\, Crisis Management\, and Leadership Skills. \nBriggs’ story and experiences have been featured in The New Yorker Magazine\, Men’s Health Magazine\, NPR’s Bob Edwards Radio Show and People Magazine. \n
