Reconnecting With Self to Reconnect With Others
Queens parents and caregivers are invited to register for a workshop from Hey There Beautiful and the UFT. This April, let's focus on reconnection — with ourselves first, and then with others. Through guided reflection and meaningful conversation, participants will examine communication patterns, emotional needs and the relationships that matter most, strengthening both inner and outer connections.
