The February Real-World Parenting Topic of the Month is childhood depression. It?s normal for kids and teens to feel sad, grouchy or angry sometimes, but when it goes on for days, weeks and even longer, it could be depression. A live Real-World Parenting Q&A session will be offered via Zoom on Thursday, February 24, from 6:30-7:30 p.m. FSGC?s Dana Thomas, LMLP, will answer questions from Q&A attendees as well as pre-submitted questions. The Real-World Parenting Q&A is *FREE*, but parents have to register to get the Zoom link. That?s also when they?ll have the chance to pre-submit a question for the Q&A. To register, visit *https://www.FSGCtopeka.com/parenting* and look for the Topic of the Month. Parents and guardians can also watch short, informational videos on childhood depression each of the first three Thursdays of the month. Check them out at FSGC?s Facebook page (*facebook.com/fsgctopeka *). I?ve attached this month?s flyer with all the dates and details. Please share it in your communications (e-newsletters, emails, social media, etc.) with parents, staff members, colleagues and others who might be interested and encourage them to join us! We also have information on our Facebook page. The goal of Real-World Parenting is to pass along ideas and advice that parents can actually use to raise healthier, happier kids. If you have any questions about Real-World Parenting Conversations, feel free to e-mail or call Jim Williamson at (270.8907). Thanks for helping us get the word out!

With significant improvements in all Shawnee County COVID-19 metrics over the last four weeks Shawnee County Health Officer, Dr. Erin Locke, has issued updated recommendations to continue the mitigation of COVID-19 in the Shawnee County community. Several previously recommended mitigation strategies have been removed due to the improved community situation, including the following: ? Recommendations to prepare for staffing and supply chain shortages ? Recommendation to Board of Health to institute a mask mandate ? Recommendation to reschedule or move events and meetings to virtual settings ? Recommendation to limit in-person attendance to 50% ? Recommendation to avoid crowds ? Recommendation to work from home These updated recommendations continue to be in accordance with recommendations from both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the State of Kansas. Recommendations continue to focus on the primary mitigation measures that have been shown to have the greatest impact on reducing the spread of COVID-19. Employers, organizations and individuals should continue the practice of conducting risk assessments to gauge necessary mitigation strategies for their particular environment and situations. Vaccination continues to be one of our best tools at combating COVID-19, as such, the SCHD continues to strongly encourage residents to protect themselves by getting a COVID-19 vaccine and subsequent booster dose once they are eligible. At this time, individuals aged 5 and older are eligible for COVID-19 vaccination and individuals aged 12 and older are eligible for a booster dose. Currently, 60% of the population in Shawnee County has completed a primary vaccine series and 66% has received at least one vaccine dose. Many opportunities to receive a COVID-19 vaccine continue to exist in our community and can be found easily through the CDC?s Vaccine tool . Testing continues to be available and free to Shawnee County residents. To find a location near you, visit www.knowbeforeyougoks.com, find locations on the SCHD testing webpage here , or contact your healthcare provider.
