The DC Department of Health (DOH) invites residents to participate in Wellness Wednesdays, an online parent support group that helps parents take care of themselves and foster resiliency for their children in these challenging times.

During Wellness Wednesday sessions, parents can share experiences and ask questions of clinicians who work in public schools and child development centers. A new topic will be discussed each Wednesday.

Wellness Wednesday is offered in English and Spanish. All District parents, caregivers, teachers, or involved community members who support children are welcome to join.  

On Wednesday, March 24, the Wellness Wednesday discussion topic is “Parenting with Patience.”
