The Commonwealth of Virginia has officially designated Oct. 9, 2023 PANS/PANDAS Awareness Day, a critical step forward in the fight to help young people suffering from debilitating neuroimmune disorders known as PANS and PANDAS.
Also known as autoimmune encephalitis, these post-infectious disorders are triggered by common viral and bacterial infections, such as strep throat and the flu. The immune system misdirects its response and attacks healthy brain tissue, resulting in life-altering brain inflammation and an array of debilitating symptoms. Early treatment can return patients to their baseline.
Is your young adult (or teen) looking for tools to manage stress? Our local therapy practice recently welcomed Brittany Tokash, Resident in Counseling, and she has openings now for new clients.
Brittany collaborates with young people, explaining how stress affects us and tailoring for them healthy techniques for confidence, energy, self-esteem, friendships, school and work. If needed, Brittany also provides skilled Depression Therapy and Anxiety Therapy. With all of her clients Tokash uses a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and values work, staying focused on science-backed results and positive change.
If you had a chance to enhance a child’s future with a time commitment of less than 2 hours a week, how would you respond? You have that opportunity right now to join over 200 Alexandrians as a reading tutor volunteer with the Alexandria Tutoring Consortium (ATC).
ATC tutors work with one child in kindergarten, first, or second grade in Alexandria public schools who need extra help with reading. Tutors meet with their Book Buddy 1-2 times each week for 30 minutes October-May at school, during school hours. Many struggling readers only receive one-on-one instruction through this program, and it makes all the difference. Last year, ATC served 195 children, of whom 82% ended the year reading on grade level and 96% made substantial reading gains. But the need is great, and we are still seeing learning lags from the pandemic.
