Ditch the fairy tales & stereotypes and figure out love & relationship styles that work for you! We want you to get what you need, including snacks & SSL hours! Open or anonymous questions encouraged.

Enjoy an SSL opportunity with snacks at this Mental Health Awareness Month workshop presented by SMYAL, Supporting and Mentoring Youth Advocates and Leaders!

Every day we are bombarded by unrealistic and unhealthy ideas of what love and relationships should look like. It’s time to ditch the fairy tales and stereotypes. Let's talk about finding love and relationship styles that work for you!

This is NOT someone talking at you. Just like a healthy relationship, we want you to get what you want and need from this workshop! You will have opportunities to ask questions or raise issues openly or anonymously for your comfort.

This program is most appropriate for ages 14-19. Library Program Attendance is limited to participants within the suggested age range of the program.

Questions about this program? Contact Brigadier General Charles E. McGee Library at 240-773-9420.

Looking for more fun things to do at MCPL? Teens & tweens are invited to drop in, meet an incredible number of live exotic reptiles, and have fun learning about their biology, environment and much more at Radical Reptiles, an Earth Month celebration presented by Reptile Smiles! You will get to pet most of these 18 amazing animals & ask questions! Teens & tweens are invited to celebrate with us Wednesday, April 30th from 4:00-5:00 PM at McGee Library! This SSL opportunity will take place in the large 3rd Floor Meeting Room. It's an exciting adventure for teens & tweens to build their wider understanding of nature, animals, pet care, and empathy toward the natural world, encouraging discovery, research and exploration.
