Mark Your Calendars! Be sure to come out for our Back To School Night on September 20, 7-9 PM!
Minding Your Mind
8:30 a.m. 11th and 12th grade
12:30 p.m. 9th and 10th grade
Minding Your Mind’s (MYM) primary objective is to provide mental health education to adolescents, teens and young adults, their parents, teachers and school administrators. Our goal is to reduce the stigma and destructive behaviors often associated with mental health issues. Treatment is available, yet only 3 out of 10 individuals needing help actually seek help. Minding Your Mind Programs move away from crisis based response to prevention through education.
