Students will hear a story of hope and recovery from a young adult speaker who successfully and productively copes with their own mental health challenges. A young adult speaker, Mallory, will speak to students on her own previous struggles with mental health. She will outline how she got support and is successful today in this journey. With an acceptance and understanding of her mental health challenges, Mallory has learned how to be vulnerable and engage in her healing. Today, Mallory uses her story to reach back and help others so they know their voice is powerful, they are allowed to be human, and healing does indeed exist.
