Supporting Young Adults
Working with the Family Support Center at Brock’s alma mater, Clarence High School, we supported a licensed mental health counselor who led a seminar to students in person and simultaneously to the entire student body. She discussed the importance of seeking help and communicating with others during mental health challenges.
Working with Niagara University’s Health and Counseling Services, we sponsored a kick-off event and a month of wellness activities and support. We also provided a training session to assist students with peer-to-peer support.
Walked with students on Arizona, State University campus in Tempe Arizona in support of the American Federation for Suicide Prevention.
