As Theo Fleury says all the time (although we need to continue to grow it): we have the greatest awareness surrounding MH in the history of our times, yet we are at a 30 yr high in suicides – something’s not right. Let’s talk abt the msgs out there. Maybe at nauseam, but I …
The last two days at Smithtown East HS were awesome. Logistically, a little challenging, bc there are 400 students per grade, & only 450 seats in the auditorium. BUT the school dedicated a full two class periods to assemblies for each grade level – so we presented to 9th &10th graders for an hour …
