Family Law Virtual CLE: Teen Suicide & The LIV Project

Please attend the Family Law Virtual CLE presentation Teen Suicide & The LIV Project, presented by Paula DuPre Pesmen, Jenna Glover, PhD, MS, BS, Judge LaBuda, and Tess Kunik and Honey Beuf of The LIV Project on September 23 at 3:30 PM.

We are losing the battle against youth suicide and the current conversations around mental health are not working. Colorado has seen the highest increase in teen suicides in the U.S., jumping 58% in three years. One third of Colorado youth report feeling sad or hopeless. This conversation will focus on LIV, a documentary short film about a Colorado teen who tragically died by suicide in 2019. The Filmmaker and subjects will discuss the film and its impact and will be joined by Dr. Jenna Glover Ph.D., and Judge LaBuda. Dr. Glover, Director of Psychology Training, Children's Hospital Colorado Pediatric Mental Health Institute, Assistant Professor, Department of Psychiatry & Department of Pediatrics, University of Colorado School of Medicine, will speak on the impact of divorce on youth mental health. Judge LaBuda, a close friend of the family, will discuss her observations of the emotional impact highly litigated domestic relations cases have on families.

$10 of each registration paid will be donated to The LIV Project. This is a very timely presentation as September is National Suicide Prevention Month. 

Our CLE presentations will be presented virtually via Zoom meeting rooms through the end of the 2020. Attendees will receive the log-in information the day prior to the presentation.
