For my CAS Project, I led a peer mental health support group in partnership with the Upper School Psychologist, Kamauru Johnson. The two of us led sessions with a different focus and activity each week, such as creating art & writing, or using laughing games as a coping mechanism. We also held open discussions about struggles that we were facing, how to deal with them, and ways to support one another. The purpose of this support group was to raise awareness about mental health while offering a safe space for students to be vulnerable without judgment.
