notMYkid [i]nspired Summer Camp 2026 was a blast! ☀️

Last week, our campers spent their time learning about community, hope, strength, resiliency, and coping skills. Campers and staff were all smiles while playing games and participating in fun team-building projects such as bridge building, a fidget toy development plan, and water day activities.

The summer camp fun may have come to a close, but that doesn't mean there aren't still ways for your kids to receive support from notMYkid. DM us today to find out how!

Summer means more free time, later nights, and often more hours online.

While technology helps kids stay connected, it can also increase the risk of cyberbullying, online predators, and unsafe interactions. That's why proactive conversations about internet safety matter.

notMYkid's Director of Strategic Partnerships, Elena Zavalza, shares a few simple tips for parents:

✔ Set routines around technology use
✔ Talk about who they're communicating with online
✔ Watch for signs of secrecy around devices
✔ Create phone-free family time
✔ Review privacy and location settings together

Concerned about your kid's online habits or mental health? notMYkid is here to help.

Looking for a simple way to connect with your kids this summer?

Put down the phones, take a drive, grab a snack, or sit by the pool and ask this question:

"What place has been on your bucket list and why has it been calling to you?"

Then listen.

You might discover a dream destination, a hidden interest, a future goal, or a story they've been waiting to share.

Try it today and see where the conversation takes you.

If connecting with your kids feels challenging right now, you don't have to navigate it alone. Visit our website to schedule a Family Navigation session and let our team help strengthen your family's connection.

Building resilience should be a daily habit!

Thank you to ICAN for joining us on notMYkid's campus during your summer camp last week. We encouraged and inspired kids to build resilience through engaging activities, meaningful conversations, and opportunities to connect. Our team had a fantastic time with these incredible kids!

Resilience isn't built in a single day. It develops over time through challenges, support, and positive experiences. While kids may appear strong on the outside, they still need caring adults, healthy coping skills, and supportive environments to help them navigate life's ups and downs.

Looking for impactful programming for a group of kids? Whether you're a school, camp, community organization, or youth-serving group, notMYkid can facilitate prevention and resiliency-focused programs on our campus or we'll come to you!

Message us today to learn more and schedule a program.

Your recurring gift may feel small to you, but to a kid in need of support, it can mean hope, connection, and a better future.

Monthly giving is one of the most powerful ways to support our mission because it provides reliable funding that helps us plan, grow, and reach more families.

You can be the reason a family finds support, a kid gains confidence, and a community grows stronger. Join our monthly giving program today.

Stop guessing what your kid is thinking. Start asking and then listen. No fixing. No judging. Just listening.

Try asking:
📱 What do you think is the best thing about social media?
📱 What do you think is the worst thing about social media?

Strong family connections don't happen in one conversation. They're built through small moments of curiosity, trust, and understanding.

If connecting with your kid feels difficult right now, notMYkid is here to help. Our counseling and support services can help families strengthen communication and rebuild connection.

DM us to learn more or schedule an assessment.

Summer break = more screen time. Are you ready?

If your kid can't put down their phone to take out the trash, it might be time to talk.
