Empowering Through Expression

At GL News Youth Mental Health Initiative, we believe in the power of storytelling to enhance emotional resilience. Our approach combines journalism with mental health awareness to provide students in grades 8-12 a safe space to express themselves, share their stories, and develop coping skills. Through a variety of tools such as articles, infographics, journal prompts, and mindfulness exercises, we aim to create a supportive environment where students can explore their emotions and build essential life skills.
