Today’s episode features a conversation between Mary Kate Riley, Youth Program Coordinator with NAMI Wisconsin, and Kathy Markeland, Coalition Board Member and Executive Director of WI Assn of Family & Children’s Agencies. Mary Kate tells us about Raise Your Voice, student-led mental health clubs focused on awareness, advocacy and acceptance. Learn what Raise Your Voice clubs do, how to start one at your school, and solutions to challenges you may encounter. We often hear about the student mental health crisis, and Mary Kate shares how change can start with the students themselves!
