This session, led by experienced mental health professionals from Carnegie Mellon's Counseling and Psychological Services (CaPS), will provide valuable insights and practical tips to help your family navigate this period with thoughtfulness. This interactive session will include a presentation followed by a discussion, where attendees can turn on their cameras and unmute their microphones to contribute to the conversation.
