Our school has a Hope Squad, which is a suicide prevention and peer support program. Hope Squad members are nominated as trustworthy and good listeners. They're trained how to help peers who are having suicidal thoughts or just going through a hard time. They also promote connectedness and mental wellness in our school.
Add Headings and they will appear in your table of contents.
