British Columbia, we're coming for you!
Talk at the Top, our youth-led Summit on mental health, is returning November 16th, 2018! Talk at the Top is for high school students from the North Shore and throughout the Sea to Sky Corridor. Delegates develop leadership skills, increase their mental health knowledge and learn how to decrease the stigma that surrounds mental illness in their schools and communities. This single day is jam-packed; exciting speakers, workshops, activities, and brainstorming sessions. Breakfast and lunch are provided, and transportation will be arranged for students from the Sea to Sky Corridor. You might be a young leader thinking "this sounds great! Exactly what I want!" Then scoot on over to the application form at jack.org/talkatthetop. Or you might be an adult thinking "I know a young person who would love this!" Then forward them this email! You can email [email protected] if you have any questions at all in the world. Love, Jack.org The students may self-nominate to Mr. Lee or Mr. Akrap and they will then select up to 3 school sponsored candidates. 604-713-8233 ext 7601 Original email can be found here.
