Ppags event feb23_2016flyer_pdf
- 1. Dear Parents and Teachers of Gifted Students,
You are invited to the following PPAGS sponsored presentation in coordination with
Colorado Springs School District 11.
So often we hear gifted youth of all ages lamenting the fact that "no one gets them!" Peers don't seem to share the same
concerns they have. They see their peers as having a preoccupation with "meaningless things." This creates isolation that so
often results in periods of depression, and prevents gifted youth from fully engaging due to fears and doubts they carry about
themselves. This presentation and discussion will focus on how we can support our youth in their quest for answers, helping
them lean how to cope and manage the discomfort of the unknown.
A presentation by Jenny Hecht, LCSW, CYT
Jenny Hecht is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She has a passion for supporting the
specific social-emotional needs of gifted individuals, particularly the existential dilemma so many face beginning at a very young
age. Her work with gifted individuals has extended to consultation and support for educational professionals who work with this
population.
