Motivational speaker Joel Beckman will talk about the importance of human connection at a time when loneliness is at an all-time high, and a series of short presentations will be given on issues affecting students today including anxiety, healthy relationships, and mental health awareness. Organizations from Cass County and across the state will be at the event providing resources to students, parents, and community members.

Atlantic High School Counselor Sarah Elm says the event addresses a critical need. “We are seeing a huge need for awareness about mental health in our community at all age levels; students and families are struggling more than ever. We need to reduce the stigma and offer support, and we hope this event will start those conversations,” shares Elm.

Instructor: Joel Beckman

Dinner will be served during the keynote address! This training has been approved for 2 hours of foster parent training credit.
