The Completely KIDS Guild announces the upcoming Author Luncheon, a fundraiser supporting Omaha nonprofit Completely KIDS, featuring keynote speaker Dr. Michael Osit.
Osit is a practicing psychologist who will address how parents and professionals can work with youth to develop key social skills, a healthy identity, and a strong work ethic despite their entire world being right at their fingertips. Osit’s talk will be based on his book, “Generation Text: Raising Well-Adjusted Kids in an Age of Instant Everything.”
The event will be held on April 10 at Hilton Omaha, 1001 Cass Street, with registration beginning at 11:30 a.m., and the luncheon and speaker to begin at noon. The presenting sponsor is Cox Communications. Event chairmen are Ann Marie Abboud and Zindel, with honorary chairmen Joy and Gordon Watanabe. During the luncheon, former Completely KIDS board member Dave Erker and philanthropist Charles E. Lakin will receive The Men Behind Completely KIDS awards for their contributions to Completely KIDS over the years.
