About this listen

 Today on Public Health Matters, we're diving into one of the most powerful tools adults have to help keep kids safe…conversations. Not just one big “talk,” but ongoing, everyday check-ins that build trust and help guide kids through life’s challenges. Whether it’s navigating friendships, making healthy choices, or facing peer pressure, these small but meaningful chats can have a big impact. They promote confidence, safety, and strong decision-making skills. They matter more than you might think. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, aunt or uncle, teacher, or simply someone who cares about the wellbeing of kids in your community, your connection makes a difference. Join us as we explore how staying connected can support children’s behavioral health and help them thrive. Public Health MATTERS.
