STUDENTS HELPING STUDENTS CLUB HIGHLIGHTS

In Their Shoes Exhibit - Unless you have walked IN THEIR SHOES™, you would never know the overwhelming feeling of sadness, anxiety and hopelessness that cause hundreds of young people to end their lives every year. The exhibit consists of shoes to represent the New Jersey youth, ages 10 through 24, who lost all hope and ended their lives by suicide. The goal for the exhibit is two-fold to let youth know they are not alone in their thoughts and struggles and to educate those who do not understand how difficult it is to live with a mental health disorder, to increase understanding, empathy and kindness towards those who struggle.
