Join us for an insightful webinar on the impact of school transitions related to military moves and how these changes affect military-connected adolescents. We’ll explore the challenges transient students face and discuss strategies professionals can use to support teens in building a sense of belonging and community. When students feel connected and engaged in their school environment, they experience positive short- and long-term outcomes for well-being, both in adolescence and adulthood. Learn how to foster belonging, create supportive school cultures, and help military-connected students thrive despite frequent relocations.
