If someone asked you how to start a mental health project… would you know what to do?

Collab Sessions 4 brought together young leaders ready to learn how mental health can be responsibly advanced as an advocacy. Together with MindShift Initiative, we explored the why, the how, and the what to do in turning concern into action.

Grateful for the meaningful conversations and the energy of youth who are ready to make a difference.

If someone asked you to start a mental health project… would you know what to do?

Mental health is one of the most urgent issues facing today’s youth. But beyond saying we are “advocates,” do we really know the why, the how, and the what to do?

In Collab Sessions 4, together with MindShift Initiative, we’ll break down clearly and responsibly why mental health advocacy matters now more than ever, how you can step into it without overstepping professional boundaries, and what concrete actions you can take in your school, organization, or community.

Let’s become an informed, responsible, and most importantly, an active advocate.

Join us on March 8, 1:00–4:00 at Kape Guid!
