Youth Council
It is essential that all aspects of Youth Elemento reflect the wants and needs of the young adults who use the center. Each month we host a meeting for our Youth Council, where we update our young adults on happenings and changes at the center and most importantly, we ask for youth feedback. For example, young adults share ideas for groups and activities they want to see at the center, and we incorporate those ideas into our monthly events calendar.
Weekly recap! We are getting ready to celebrate Dias de Los Muertos. We made frames of our loved ones, we cooked together, made Halloween themed shirts and we made candles that smell oh so good. Today we have our ExpresArte event, can’t wait!
¡Resumen semanal! Nos preparamos para celebrar el Día de Muertos. Hicimos marcos de nuestros seres queridos, cocinamos juntos, hicimos camisetas con temática de Halloween y velas que huelen de maravilla. Hoy tenemos nuestro evento ExpresArte. 🎨🧑🍳👨🍳🎃🕯️ #youthmentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #youthprogram #free #accesscenter
