February 2023

 

Happy 2023! I hope this year has been wonderful for you and your family! Thank you so much for continuing to contact me for recommendations, information validation, and overall support! It's been a while, so stick with me; I value your time but also have a bit to cover!


What started as a call to action for parents around the unfortunate events in our public school system almost two years ago has developed into a multifaceted support system for families! Being able to assist parents through some tough challenges while supporting and encouraging others has been an honor. I am thrilled that you continue to include me in your family's health journey!


Great health is just that, a lifelong journey! Health is rarely perfect or easy all the time. Our health journey has been far from perfect, and I know the struggles and worries of having a sick child. We've had to find solutions when our medical providers were "not giving up, but just didn't know what else to do."


Over the last two years, I've wanted you to realize that we, as parents, must take an active role in our kids' health. What that looks like for each family may be different—but relying on intuitions or if someone's name starts with a Dr. as the basis of having all the answers should be a little less relied upon than in the past. (I am in no way saying medical professionals should not be consulted when your family actually needs them.)


Parents for Kids Health will be transitioning in 2023. There will be products and other services offered that will add value to your family's total health. There will be more opportunities for in-person events; the first one is next week! Behind the scenes, a website refresh is underway, which is amazing! I will continue to bring details about efforts that may affect our kids on a large scale.


I've had many ask how they can support me. As mentioned, 2023 will see PFKH transition & this includes no longer being held by guidelines of a non-profit. Support can be provided by purchasing the products ( great books, toxin-free skincare, cosmetics & home products and the Kids Health Shop on Etsy to name a few! ) & services I'm affiliated with or advocating. Direct support opportunities are available through PayPal, Venmo, ApplePay & Square. Substack also provides a way to show support monthly or yearly.


I am truly grateful for the relationships gained since the start of PFKH in 2021! Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions about the details in this email or how I may support you in 2023!


In Solidarity,


Nikki

NC Parents Bill of Right &Youth Health Protection Act

Labeled as "North Carolina's anti-gay bill," SB 49 is making its way through the NC legislature but not without strong opposition. HB 43 has also been introduced in an attempt to combat the tragic issuance of puberty blockers and other medical actions taken against the children of North Carolina. After years of being crippled by the threat of the Governor's veto pen, it appears there may be actual legislation happening in the NCGA.



This is an extremely important time for our kids. Hard discussions will occur, but we cannot continue to sit on the sidelines. Support options are there. Each week we see more and more attempts to win the hearts and minds of our youth.



On February 8, 2023 Duke held a Media Briefing to discuss this pending legislation. Watch what these experts claim is best for the kids in their care.
