The SHINE Initiative had a great morning talking with students from Fitchburg High School. 💬 Thank you for joining the conversation and supporting mental health & wellness!

Today we had the pleasure of presenting to 9th grade health classes at Shrewsbury HS. Did you know that 1 in 5 people have a mental illness? We quizzed the students on their knowledge of mental health & how they could help those with a mental illness - stay tuned for results!
