ACS Publishes 99
Tips for Talking With Your Teenager
The Peninsula's top local
mental health professionals share their expertise.
Adolescent Counseling Services is giving local parents an opportunity
to receive a free copy of 99 Tips, a guide for improving communication
and building positive relationships with 11- through 19-year-olds, when
they sign up for ACS’s mailing list. The 24-page booklet includes
strategies to help parents and adolescents develop important
dialogue skills at this crucial time in their relationship.
“Talking with teenagers can be tough,” says Executive Director
Philippe Rey, Psy.D. “We’re happy to be able to provide parents
with some ways to effectively communicate with their teens.”
Ninety-nine Tips contains input from 28 local experts, including
mental health professionals and service leaders in our community. The
complete list of contributors and their contact information is also included
in the booklet.
ACS has already received hundreds of requests from parents
in the PAUSD middle and high schools, Menlo-Atherton High School and other
local schools. Ninety-nine Tips is now available, and will continue
to be available as long as the supply lasts.
