Guiding Children to Authentic Success
Wednesday, October 24, 7 to 8:30 p.m.
St. Mary’s Episcopal Church
2609 North Glebe Rd.
Arlington, VA 22207

What is authentic success and what does it mean for your child and for you as a parent? Are we overemphasizing accomplishment and performance and underemphasizing resiliency and empathy?

This presentation by Dr. Heather Tedesco, a McLean-based applied psychologist, will focus on the long-term approach to parenting and will give ideas on how to incorporate your core values as you guide your children through life.

Friends, neighbors, and family are welcome to this free community parenting event! Light snacks and beverages will be offered.

Our 4th annual Jennifer Bush-Lawson 5K & Family Fun Day carries on the legacy of Jenn Lawson, a dedicated mom and runner who was passionate about making available to all mothers the same level of care she received for her own complicated pregnancies.

During a morning of celebration and health-focused activities, we’ll raise funds for low-income women and their babies to receive high-quality prenatal care through our beneficiary, Virginia Hospital Center’s Outpatient Clinic. Festivities will include a certified 5K course and a Family Fun Day with kids’ fun run, music, moon bounces, rock wall, obstacle course, food trucks, face painting, balloon animals and more!
