As we head into Summer, I wanted to share some resources with you as we end this year and transition back to a more normal school schedule this Fall.

South Bay Families Connected Parent Chat
Provided in partnership between South Bay Families Connected (SBFC), Beach Cities
Health District and Thelma McMillen Center, the Parent Chat serves between 10-15 people
per week and offers its participants a confidential and supportive space to share their
parenting challenges and successes. Dr. Moe Gelbart, Executive Director of the Thelma
McMillen Recovery Center, is the lead moderator for the group and offers his professional
insight and expertise when needed. The first Summer Chat will take place on June 28, 10am-11am. Click on the link above to access the zoom chat link for the Parent Chat and for more info, other dates, etc..

SBFC Virtual Events Calendar.

South Bay Families Connected Teen Center
The SBFC Teen Center was created for South Bay youth by South Bay youth who recognize the
mental health challenges that so many teens face during this challenging time as we stay safer
at home together. To create connection and to share tips for wellness, they have either
produced the following videos, or helped us curate them from national sources.
Explore through a variety of resources ranging from social and emotional wellness, common
challenges, building positive connections, harm prevention and how to stay motivated and
present during COVID-19.

Take a look at Da Vinci Schools Families Connected, part
of the South Bay Families Connected (SBFC) project. The
intention of this platform is to provide students and
families with the resources needed to help navigate
challenging situations and develop healthy habits.

Looking for a way to spend your Summer with little time commitment? The LMU College of Business Administration is partnering with FoolProof on a one-of-a-kind High School Financial Literacy Program this summer. LMU college students mentor high school students via a highly interactive online curriculum over the course of seven weeks. 

Program Structure

• Over the course of seven weeks (June 15 – August 3, 2021), students will complete seven modules. 
• Students can expect to commit 2-4 hours per week.
• Points will be given to teams and individuals for completion and understanding of the materials.
• Team mentors (LMU students) will check in with each student and help with the modules.

Cost is $50, but will be returned back to you upon completion of the modules.
