Dear Berkeley High School Parents and Guardians:

ALL BHS parents and guardians are invited to attend a very important 
parent education evening on Drugs, Alcohol and Teens.  The PTSA and 
the BHS Development Group have worked together to provide parent 
education on topics of concern to many BHS families. Please be sure 
to join us for this important topic.

Drugs, Alcohol and Teens
Date: Thursday, November 13, 7:00 to 9:00p.m.
Presentor: Sally Cohen, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Location: Library, Berkeley High School

Sally Cohen has been facilitating teen substance abuse groups and
doing individual therapy with adolescents for over twenty years.  She
has worked at high schools throughout the Bay Area and is currently
developing a substance abuse program at BHS where she leads substance
use/abuse therapy groups. She has supervised graduate students
attending JFK University as well as interns at Berkeley Mental
Health.  Currently she is on the faculty at the Women's Therapy
Center.  She is also in private practice in Berkeley where she works
with adolescents, couples, and adults.   Ms. Cohen will be discussing
adolescent substance use and helping parents differentiate between
recreational use and dependence.  She will also talk about  what
parents can do to help their teen and present various treatment
options. There will be time at the end for questions and discussion.
