2022 Service-Learning Symposium: Mental Health Awareness in High Schools

Mental Health Awareness in High Schools

Authors: Sara Torbert

Faculty Supervisor: Anelise Farris, Ph.D.

Community Partner: Girls Scouts of America (Helping Cindy Barrow with her Gold Award Project)

Abstract:

This project has been a great way of putting what we have learned from our textbook and applying it to real people. It has also been eye-opening to show that every person is different and what may work for one person may not work for another but it has been exciting being able to get out into the field and actually help and have an impact on people’s lives, which continues to fuel our drive to want to help more people with the profession we have all put our brains and hearts to.
