Let's Talk about Anxiety: Community Viewing of "Angst"

Through the generous support of KyleCares, the King Philip, Norfolk, Plainville & Wrentham School districts will host Angst, an Indie Flix original documentary, to raise awareness around anxiety. With an emphasis on children and adolescents, the film provides parents a candid look at symptoms of anxiety and tools for coping, while increasing help seeking and hope. Discussion with a panel of school and community professionals will follow the viewing.


The documentary is suitable for children ages 10 and up who may wish to attend with their parent.

Date: Thursday, February 6, 2020
Time: 7:00 PM
