Let’s Talk About It!: Understanding Depression workshop, Wed., Feb. 3

Slide3
Join our interactive workshop on depression Wed., Feb. 3 from 12:30-1:30 p.m. in the PUB room 9102.

Everyone occasionally feels blue or sad. But these feelings are usually short-lived and pass within a couple of days. When you have depression, it interferes with daily life and causes pain for both you and those who care about you.

Join Counseling Services at our interactive workshop and learn more about how to recognize the signs and symptoms of depression for yourself or someone you care about.

Workshop is open to all and no RSVP needed.
Questions about the workshop? Contact Sheryl Copeland at scopeland@shoreline.edu or 206.533.6712.

Don’t know what Community Read is? Read on:
Each year a new book is selected for our Community Book Read. Together we share our impressions and ideas. Weekly analyses of the text are led by a variety of college volunteers, bringing with them their unique backgrounds, expertise and perspectives. This keeps the discussion fresh, lively and relevant.

This year’s book is Octavia’s Brood: Science Fiction Stories from Social Justice Movements. Octavia’s Brood is a collection of social justice-themed science fiction stories that feature things like time travel, shape shifting, dystopian worlds, re-imaginings of “model minorities” and the possibilities of using visionary fiction to develop new ideas of future worlds. The works are inspired by the writings of Octavia Butler, an award-winning science fiction writer (Kindred, Parable of the Sower, and Lilith’s Brood) who lived in Lake Forest Park before her death in 2006.

The entire campus community is invited to read and discuss the stories inside Octavia’s Brood during winter quarter. Students will be able to receive a FREE copy of the book after signing up!

You can explore the book, its message and its authors at the library’s learning guide here.

You can find more information and a link to sign up on the SLC web page and you can also sign up to join the read here.
