Too much on their plate? They’re not alone.
This cue card kicks off our “How to Catch a Thought” workshop, where youth explore emotional regulation and overwhelm.

🌀 Students will be guided through exercises to recognize when they’re nearing their limit — and how to pause, name their emotion, and reach out.

👥 Behavioral health facilitators help teens find calm in chaos and create scripts for self-expression.

🌱 It's one of our most empowering sessions — because it validates that being overwhelmed is human.

Every young person deserves a plan.
During our “My Safe Space” activity, youth will complete cards like this one — identifying three safe adults and one trusted space.

✍️ This isn’t just a card. It’s a lifeline, a self-directed safety net, and a reminder that they are not alone.

Facilitators with behavioral health backgrounds guide youth through the process, helping them name what’s already strong in their lives.

Every workshop room is also a safe space.
We’re posting emergency mental health resources in every room — because knowing who to call can save a life.

📋 These posters are part of our trauma-informed approach, ensuring youth leave with trusted hotlines, local supports, and a stronger sense of control.

💡 The “My Safe Space” workshop will teach teens to build their own plans for support — and recognize when others may need help too.

🧠 Emotional safety is the foundation of everything we do.

Peer problems are real — and hard to talk about.
In our interactive roleplay workshop, youth will act out real-life challenges like this one:
“You’re having trouble with a friend and don’t know what to do.”

💬 This tool is part of “Coping Kits”, where we give young people space to talk it out, test language, and build confidence in how they handle conflict.

🌟 Our youth are thinkers, feelers, and leaders — we just help them unlock their voice.

📢 South Suburbs Parents!
At our “It’s Okay to Ask for Help” workshop, youth will challenge common myths around mental health using powerful conversation starters like this one.
They’ll explore the truth: asking for help is strength — not weakness.

✨ This workshop is one of several interactive sessions designed to help youth cope, create, and connect.
🧠 Led by trained facilitators, youth ages 12–18 will leave with real strategies and a renewed sense of self-worth.
