Healthy NewsWorks Family Engagement Workshops bring children and caregivers together to explore health, wellness, and media literacy through lively conversations, hands-on activities, and practical learning families can use at home. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience working with elementary and middle school students, Healthy NewsWorks creates welcoming, interactive sessions that help families ask good questions, evaluate information, and make thoughtful decisions together.
A hallmark of our workshops is the opportunity for families to learn from and interact with guest experts. Depending on the topic, families may hear from a health professional, journalist, educator, or other knowledgeable community partner who can answer questions, share real-world experience, and make the workshop content more meaningful and relevant.
