"Coping with the Stress of Change" Webinar

Coping with the Stress of Change

      Wednesday, April 27 @ 0900-1000 (ET)

S – T – R – E – S – S….it comes at all of us in one form or another.  However one of the greatest sources of stress is change! 

The FLO Unaccompanied Tour Support Team knows all about change.

 

Change of location, change of routine, change of lifestyle, change of parenting skills, changes in relationships due to separation, and the list goes on. 

This webinar is open to all employees and adult family members.

We hope you’ll join us to discuss coping skills in dealing with change and the stress that comes along with it at our next webinar.

Virtual participants will need a computer with a high-speed internet connection and computer speakers. The “chat” function will allow virtual participants to post questions during the presentation.
