The Middle School Stand Together students were recently trained for the 2024-25 school year.

Stand Together students collaboratively create events throughout the school year to engage the middle school student body in positive ways. Their goals include engaging and educating peers about mental health and encouraging peers to communicate with an adult they trust when they are concerned about their own or someone else’s behavioral health.

The students also hope to increase social inclusion, promote individual empowerment, and to take action against stigmas related to mental health and substance abuse disorders.
