Our Mental Health Consultant is our school's HOSA advisor and nurse, Nurse Moreen. With her guidance, we were able to conduct interviews, gather ideas, and expand on our campaign to help promote anxiety awareness. With her knowledge of mental health, we were able to stem our small ideas into multiple different parts including the Are You Happy campaign, podcast, Instagram, and TikTok and she acted as the base behind our campaign. An interview by Nurse Moreen regarding anxiety and students in SBHS is located in the Wellness Videos tab. She was also able to highlight the importance of early intervention and identification in regards to Anxiety and guide us into emphasizing early identification as a major protective factor.
