Here is an update on what we have been up to the past couple of months since that first post:
My daughter Thea accompanied me to speak to grades 6-12 at Berthold School (Lewis and Clark 161 District) on 3/27/17. |
I wore Jocelyn's Adventure Time socks to speak to grades
6-12 at Sawyer Public School on 3/31/17.
The responses to our presentations have been very positive, and we are grateful that the schools in our area are making an effort to support their students and make mental health and suicide awareness a priority. Let's keep going. Learn More, Do More. Much Love- Joleen, Jocelyn's mom
