Get Healthy Teen Support Group
As part of our Metamorphosis @ the Camden Twp. Library Teen Summer Reading Program, we are offering a Teen Support Group called “Get Healthy”. We meet every Thursday at 1 PM. This support group is set up to help teens make health-smart choices. We offer emotional support along with tips on healthier eating and activities. We do require a parent permission slip be signed so we know that the parents know and allow their teen to participate. The Camden Twp. Library does not promote specific weight-loss or exercise programs - we feel this is a choice to be made by the teen, their parents and/or their doctor.
Plan to join us every Thursday at 1 PM and begin your journey to “Get Healthy”!
