This is a preventive mental health and community engagement event. Community members volunteer to speak about their career field. Students are surveyed about their fields of interest and then scheduled to hear from the most relevant speakers.
This is a preventive mental health
program designed to give students a
hopeful and an optimistic outlook of their own futures, which has been identified as one of the 40 Developmental Assets. By
ensuring a diverse range of speaker backgrounds, we are aiming to have professional mentors that represent the diversity of our student body. This is also a community engagement opportunity for middle school students to connect in a meaningful way with positive role models.
