Real Talk for Parents (Parenting Discussion and Kids’ Playdate)




WES is trying out a new event called "Real Talk for Parents." Join Melissa Sinclair, WES's Director of Lifelong Learning, for a discussion on talking to our children about sex and sexuality in a healthy, positive way. Bring your questions and conundrums. Melissa will share resources and a brief provide an overview of the Our Whole Lives sexuality education program offered at WES.
  
Children of all ages are welcome to join the playdate starting at 4pm in the Social Hall. Babysitters will be on hand so parents can join the discussion that will take place in the Library starting at 4:30.

Please RSVP (preferably by June 15) here.

June 12 Membership Meeting--New Time!

This spring, we're trying something new--a post-platform membership meeting.  (Platform will be at 10:30 a.m. this summer, so we'll begin around noon.)
Bring a potluck dish for lunch, your own dishes, and your thoughts, ideas and reflections to share.  Among the agenda items:  electing new Board members and hearing from WES leadership; discussing our growth; winning prizes (!); and enjoying each other's company. If you will need child care during the meeting, please contact Melissa Sinclair (melissas@ethicalsociety.org or 202/882-6650) to sign up.
