Spartans Offering Support (SOS)
by Michael Chowning
The SOS squad at Ocean Township is a team formed this year to combat rising mental health challenges among youth in today’s society, specifically targeting those of the student athletes. The team is made up of 25 dedicated representatives who are available at any time to serve as an ear for your problems. QR codes to speak to members have been posted around the building along with dropboxes which are available for you to place any issue that you need to talk about. Tough game? Tell them about it. Having a hard time in a class? Tell them about it. They are the button you press when you need help, the number you dial in the midst of a crisis- and they are proud to serve you as your SOS representatives.
